Who am I?
My name is Jarrad, and I am an 18 year old beginner programmer. I began to learn programming about 1 year ago, starting with JS in order to contribute to the Scratch Addons project.
My relationship with programming is one of immense love-filled hatred.
Looking at you CSS.
I currently attend a TAFE institution in Western Australia for a music technology course, another of my passions. When I'm not studying there, I am coding. I am still 100% a beginner, and am currently learning svelte+kit. When I am not studying or coding, I am probably gaming. I play relatively popular games, such as Red Dead Redemption 2, CS2, Forza Horizon 5, and Cyberpunk 2077. You can check out screenshots here and my rig here.
Projects
More about me!
I love programming, despite not being very good at it
- I am currently learning svelte (and by extension sveltekit)
- I started learning programming at about 17 to contribute to the Scratch Addons project
I LIVE for music.
- I go to TAFE (It's like college) for music sound production
- Instead of performing, we do the technical side, which in my opinion is a lot more fun
- I also of course love listening to music (I am right now)
- Some of my favourite artists include Eminem, AJR, Imagine Dragons, and Train
I also love to play games.
- I play a lot of games, but I also do not play a lot of games
- I have about $300 worth of games installed that I haven't played :(
- And probably that much on my wishlist too
FOOD
- I LOVE food. Almost everything to be honest, you'll find me munching on a carrot randomly
- My absolute favourite food is Spaghetti Bolognese, with a special spice mix of my own creation
- My favourite pasta to go with it is Barilla Linguine N.13
- Also recently I've found a love for salmon, and I've gotten quite good at cooking it
- Update: I ate too much salmon and now I don't like it LMAOOO
