Personal Projects

As software development is my hobby, I am not just coding at work. I am coding at the weekends, in the evenings, at night, or even in the morning. There is nothing better than sitting in front of my MacBook 👩🏻‍💻, sipping some nice coffee ☕️, listening to some bassy hip hop beats 🎧, and forgetting the world around me 😌

Of course, when coding this much, some nice projects get to see the light of day. So let me introduce my personal projects to you.
