About me

I’m Zap, a student and software developer based in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. At school, I research machine learning algorithms and applications. During my free time, I usually work on side projects or learn new techniques. My goal is to create helpful tools and applications with intuitive and presentable interfaces.

I’m glad you’ve come across my website. This is where I organize and share my thoughts and experiences. I’ll try to write about my notes or opinions about certain topics I recently encountered, especially those that I found interesting or had the most trouble articulating.

Tech stack

C is my weapon of choice, as I can have a comprehensive understanding of most, if not all, of the language. I even use C for performance-critical parts of my web apps by compiling them into WebAssembly. Other languages that I frequently use are Rust, JavaScript, Python, and Lua, but I can work with a wide range of languages and tools.

For personal projects, I prefer making things from scratch for educational purposes. But for work, I used many frameworks, and my personal favorites are Svelte for front-ends and Starlette for back-ends. This website is built with Zola because of its ease of setting up, incredible speed, and flexible template engine.
