I'm coko 👋

A french developer who’s passionate about programming and open-source.

I spend most of my time in the terminal and rely on a variety of command-line tools to help me on my day job: neovim, tmux, fzf, sed, rg, jq, git, curl, xh, ssh, and many more…

I also like DevOps: managing my home lab(s), deploying things with Docker, etc.

Sometimes, I write stuff on my blog: The Terminal Yard (tty)

fd .git --type dir --hidden $HOME/projects

find projects -type d

😴 latuicon/ TUI icon picker made with Ratatui

👒 vegapull/ One Piece TCG data scraper

⛵ boat/ CLI to track the time you spend on things

⏳ aot/ Advent of Time browser game

🌍 MéMonde/ Geography guessing game (Play now!)

🏠 mataho/ CLI to interact with a local Tahoma box

I co-host a podcast called Terminal Tuesday with Orhun Parmaksız (ratatui btw), where we invite fellow terminal nerds to talk about their projects and setup.

We've had the chance to discuss with a lot of brilliant people all around the world about various topics relating to the terminal space.

If you enjoy spending time in the terminal, you should check it out!

Episodes are freely available on YouTube

I like to try writing existing stuff from scratch.

It's a great way to learn how things work.

❌ DO NOT USE the following projects in production apps ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

💀 http-rs/ Raw-dogging TCP sockets to make an HTTP/1.1 server

🔐 huco705-rs/ Rust rewrite of my old huco705 cipher algorithm

✨ base64-rs/ b64 (en|de)coder from scratch

🧩 sudoku-rs/ Sudoku library from scratch (generator/checker/solver)

All RTFW projects: github.com/rtfw-rs

gh --stats --user=$(whoami)

I push my code to GitHub for simplicity. However, I also self-host my own instance of Forgejo: git.lazyfreax.dev

I use it mainly to mirror my GitHub projects.

The reason?

Well, you never know what Microsoft is up so it's good to have a backup plan just in case 👀

Keyboards

I started using ergonomic keyboards in 2024 and haven't looked back ever since. A year after, I discovered Ergo-L and decided to adopt it as my daily layout.

I have had 3 different ergo keyboards in total:

★ sofle/ QMK config for my first ergo keyboard (58 keys)

★ crkbd/ Vial config for my previous wired Corne (46 keys)

★ zmk-config/ ZMK config for my newest wireless Corne Pro (36 keys)

More about my current keyboard at coko7/zmk-config

I have always loved drawing (on paper or w/ Gimp) and writing.

Even before falling in love with programming, I was scribbling characters on my notebooks and writing manga.

For more than 10 years, I have been building my own fantasy worlds and stories. And recently, I decided to put all of them in a wiki of Markdown files, which I edit with Obsidian.

The graph below is a recent snapshot of the entire wiki. The nodes represent characters, species, locations, organizations, etc.
