Independent Developer
Crafting tools, systems, and experiments
About Me
Hi, my name is Noman. I'm an undergraduate business student, and I've learned everything I know about computers and development on my own. Minecraft was the main reason I became interested in tech. Making Redstone builds, testing mods, and tinkering with its mechanics were all enjoyable to me. Back in early 2021, I lost my YouTube channel to a redline hijacking tool, which made me want to focus more on cybersecurity. That led to an interest in Linux, automation, and creating tools to solve real-world issues. I currently make apps, utilities, and security tools for various platforms, ranging from full-stack web apps to CLI tools, with a focus on automation, privacy, and minimalism. Here's a look at what I've built, learned, and explored along the way.
