PaulExplorer/README.md

Hi, I'm PaulExplorer 👋

Self-taught developer & high school student in France

I started programming around age 12 during the COVID-19 lockdown. It began as a way to kill time, but quickly turned into a genuine passion. I love figuring out how things work, from game engines to web frameworks.


🚀 My Coding Journey

  • 12 years old:
    Started tinkering with simple websites and Python scripts, mostly learning by reading other people's code and experimenting.

  • 13 years old:
    Got interested in Java and game development. I made a small Star Wars-themed game to understand the basics of object-oriented programming. Also wrote many Discord bots in Python.

  • 14 years old:
    Wanted to understand memory management, so I tried my hand at C++. This led to CubeGame2D, a parkour game which was my first complex project.

  • 15 years old:
    Explored C# by creating a desktop music app and experimented with mobile dev using Flutter. I also developed several websites using Python for the backend.

  • 16 years old:
    Built OeuvresTrack to help organize my movies and books library. It was a great way to dive deeper into full-stack web development.

  • 17 years old:
    Fell in love with Rust. I started by creating FamilyNest, a genealogy software, to learn the language.
    Since then, I've completely rewritten it into a modern web ecosystem:

    I also made my first open-source contribution to my-internet.


🛠️ Skills & Technologies

Main Focus: Python, Rust, Web Development
Also Experienced With: C++, Java, C#, Dart (a bit)


🌟 Featured Projects

  • FamilyNestWeb: My current main project. A genealogy platform built with Rust & WASM.
  • FamilyNest: The original desktop version where I first learned Rust.
  • OeuvresTrack: A personal tracking tool for movies, series, and books.

📚 About Me

  • Completely self-taught and always learning.
  • I love building tools that solve real problems or are just fun to make.
  • Open to collaboration and eager to contribute more to open source.

Thanks for stopping by! 😊
