I am a web backend developer, though I'm open to experiment in other fields as
well.  You can look at my projects on:

- [GitHub](https://github.com/Huy-Ngo/)
- [Disroot Git](https://git.disroot.org/huyngo)
- [source hut](https://sr.ht/~huyngo/)

See my CV in PDF format [here][cv].

# Education

- Bachelor: University of Science and Technology of Hanoi, 2018-2021

# Free Software work

I support free software by writing it and contribute to some projects within my
ability.  Below are some projects I've participated in development.

## Web apps

### Acanban

[Acanban][acanban] is an in-development academic-oriented project management
system.

So far, we have implemented only basic project collaboration features. There is
much work to be done in the future.

## Libraries

### Palace

[Palace][palace] is a 3D audio library in Python.  It is a wrapper around
OpenAL for Python, expecting to provide developers with modern and intuitive
utilities for audio processing.

See demo in the video below (or see it on [my Peertube][palace-demo]):

## Chat bots

### Discord meme bot

[Meme bot][discord-meme-bot] is a meme bot for discord using Reddit API.
I have transferred the repo ownership to my friend [dinhanhx][dinhanhx-gh]

## Game

### Axuy

I added face culling and added texture to the 3D shooting game [axuy][axuy] by
[McSinyx][cnx].

The game uses [palace](#palace) for 3D audio by the way.

## Packaging

### Floating cheeses

> The [interplanetary wheels][ipwhl] (or floating cheeses) are platform-unique,
> singly-versioned Python binary distributions backed by IPFS for security and
> reproducibility.

I occasionally participated in packaging for these distributions.

### dictd

I am [packaging][alpine-dictd] [dictd][dictd] for Alpine Linux. It is
unfortunately not done yet.

## Miscellaneous

- [YAltaCV], a Python script that generate AltaCV-themed CV from YAML data
- [cov-news][cov], a scraper for COVID-19 related news 
- [Wikt CLI][wikt-cli] is a CLI Wiktionary client using its API.
- [GenWord][genword] a word generator on Android, alternative to
  [its JS equivalent][gen]
- [IPA keyboard layout][ipa] for FlorisBoard

## Super short PR

- [Nine-line PR][alt-client] for a software listing
- [Three-line PR][site-envs] for envs.net website
- [One-character PR][publiccode] for Public Code standard
