🗺️✨
Turned my entire career into a Middle-Earth style adventure map — and it perfectly captures how chaotic, surprising, and fun this journey has been.

From The Shire (early learning)
to Moria (tough chapters)
to Gondor (returning to big tech)
to Erebor (the current realm I’m building)…

Kotlin/WASM = Kotlin compiled to WebAssembly.
Fast. Portable. Runs in the browser AND on servers via WASI.

I wrote a beginner’s guide breaking it all down — what WASM is, why Kotlin/WASM matters, and what to know before diving in.

In Android, Logcat was my best friend.
One stream. All the truth.

💡 Kotlin, AI, Web, Backend, Data Science — one place has it all.

It’s about how you learn.

This week, I explored @jetbrains.com Academy.

And it’s not just about Kotlin.
