Crafting the Échiquier Niçois Website
A Journey with AstroJS, Shadcn, Tailwind, and TinaCMS. How I built a website for my local chess club using modern web technologies.
When I'm not coding, you can find me on the chessboard or soaring high on the wings of a TIE, pursuing my never-ending quest to find The Little Prince. I'm also passionate about cinema, whether it's films, series, or anime! In my free time, I enjoy playing the piano and training for volleyball...
My love for chess goes back to my childhood. At first I was discovering the game and playing casually, but soon found myself hungering for more and thus I ended up joining a club. Not too long after I was competing in the French championships. After having practiced competitively well into my teenage years, I am currently focusing on training to improve my understanding of the game. I also contribute to various chess platforms and communities and I'm currently a Twitch moderator for Chess.com.
For as long as I remember the The Little Prince held a special bearing in my heart. A story so simple yet so layered, so childish yet so subtle. A story that has colored my dreams ever since I read it. The Little Prince became a guiding star in my sky. That is how I first came into contact with the world of aviation, which I later on fell in love with. My interest unwavering across the years, I started taking flying lessons during adolescence, and am currently in the process of completing my PPL (Private Pilot's License).
Currently, I'm studying for a BSC. Computer Science at the IU International University of Applied Sciences. I'm a freelance backend developer and I've been working on several projects for the past years...
My main programming language is Golang but I've worked with java, python, typescript, C/C++ and more. I have experience with databases such as PostgreSQL or MongoDB and I'm familiar with Docker, Docker Compose and even Podman. I'm a passionate open-source enthusiast and have been contributing to several projects for a few years now. I've also created Memnix, a free and open-source flashcard app for Android and Web.
I like to manage communities and I'm currently the founder of The Kafejo a Discord community for developers and students. I'm a devoted Linux enthusiast, using Bluefin (Fedora Silverblue) as my main operating system
