My notes, my projects and my life

I’m a programmer, who is trying to be a professional in the field and stay a human being at the same time. My primary specialization is backend web development, but I’m also interested in computer graphics, game development and art.

My site contains mainly my notes that are of interest of me, they are managed with Zettelkasten methodology. I use them mostly to improve my education process, store information that important for me and share it with others. I will be pleased if you find something useful.

My notes are sort of “second brain”, allow me choosing what to do next, store long-term information and focus on important things:

• Projects to do something interesting and useful.
• Work as main activity, finance source.
• Learning is source of pet projects.
• Awesome software list help me to control and learn “tools”.
• Media collection, for relax and fun.

Almost all notes written in English language, which isn’t my primary one, so be ready for grammar mistakes.
