Hey! I’m Francisco Cidade. I work as a software and data engineer (Go, Python, Databricks, AWS and so on). On this blog I’ll write about anything that makes me curious.
What is this Hobby Library?
It’s where I keep what I learn and what I build, explained step by step, with my reasoning, code and the mistakes along the way. The idea is to keep writing, so that ten years from now this is a timeline of all the cool things I did.
What I’ve been up to
- Games, assets, fonts and tools: itch.io
- Self hosting: a 2019 Galaxy A30s became a server, running everything through Termux: music streaming, finances, a YouTube homepage without Shorts and a tamagotchi that dies if I don’t drink water.
- Music: I play a few instruments and make half-baked covers from time to time.
- Automating the repetitive stuff: a weekly e-mail with my finances, bots that simulate buying and selling stocks, a Gmail filter versioned in git and other chores.
- 3D printing: still learning.
