Software Engineer from Mexico. By day, my work revolves around writing code (.py, .php, .ts, .bash, .hcl, .yaml etc), building APIs, and integrating LLMs and RAG workflows (though none of that proprietary code makes it to this GitHub account). In my free time, you'll find my open-source projects here, including native Linux applications built in Rust (currently learning).
Right now, my ADHD hyperfocus is channeled into Chilpa, from the Nahuatl Chilpatl 𓆤. Yes, it's a music player: local-first, Hi-Res, agnostic to any closed platform, and built around a plugin system that allows it to connect to virtually any music source, from anywhere. Heavily inspired by MusicBee & Strawberry, and with the QoL from the now dead Qbz.
Linux user since 1999. I use Gentoo (BTW) for its flexibility and performance, and because every sufficiently long emerge is a perfectly valid excuse to grab another cup of coffee.
There is a very good chance I’m listening to Iron Maiden or Opeth while writing code. To be fair, there is a very good chance I’m listening to Iron Maiden at virtually any point in my life.
I’m also into old-school anime (Macross and Saint Seiya get their annual rewatch) and video games, although my Steam backlog is currently competing with my bug backlog for long-term dominance.
When I’m not coding or debugging, I’m probably building something with my daughter or replaying Doom II or Castlevania SOTN.
