I finally published a repo for my terminal video editor: github.com/wong-justin/vic. I'm fumbling around with GitHub Actions and compiling C libraries, and I'm learning a lot.
I survived the hurricanes in October. I'm alive and able to work! Reach me at justin@wonger.dev if you have an opportunity, or if you just want to say hi.

ABOUT
___ ___ ___ \\ \\ / \\ \\ / \\ / \\/ \/ \ elcome to my website! I'm a software developer. I'm usually thinking about:- crafting convenient, lean websites and webapps
- honing my command-line workflow
- tightening feedback loops
- designing with empathy
- teaching effectively
- writing more (rss)
- helping others
- minimalism
- usability
- friction
- making sure of the more important things; offline priorities
Developer sites can be so drab. I want to share interesting things, like the thrill of making small projects and solving new problems. I also want to inject personal content when possible, like this picture of me.
Here's a few bits about my life: I love math tutoring and teaching. I've worked as an assistant home inspector as well. I'm always down to play soccer, tennis, basketball, volleyball, ping pong, and any other sport - it really engages the mind and body, and it's great to be with friends in the Florida sun.
I try to take care of myself. I'm eating lots of veggies, going barefoot, and stretching new muscles. I'm reading more books and doodling more doodles. Sometimes I go to bed on time. I wish I had a hammock, and I wish I could snuggle with my cat forever. I've already wasted too much life on screens. Don't make the same mistake - remember to touch grass today! But I hope you enjoy this site first. Consider listening to one of my favorite albums while you browse, too. That's always fun.
Cheers,justin@wonger.dev
