I'm a software engineer who has spent the last three years in a job where security restrictions forced me to use the bare minimum of my programming talent, and I'm looking to branch back out into some interesting new projects.
Refreshing my skills with toy apps, learning some new skills and languages, and looking for some cool open-source projects to start contributing to.
Available on GitHub are some of my recent skills-refreshing projects. I'll try to keep these pinned as I make them, because they're a good example of my current coding standards. There probably aren't many yet, but I'm working on it. I'll also be refurbishing and uploading some past projects, but these will be a bit rougher so I probably won't pin them.
I also have a decent amount of experience in creating Discord.js bots - some of those repos are still public. Please bear in mind that most of these are old, very specialised to specific servers/applications, and were made when I had zero professional experience. They're probably a mess.
