Slatians hideout on the Web

A few bytes about me …

Slatian says

Greetings, I'm Slatian (sleɪtiːan) a fluffy dragon who creates Software, makes it run and breaks it (not necessarily in that order).

My interests include taking code apart and putting it back together, customising my desktop and terminal environment, the semantic web and organising information (apparently called Ontology). Sometimes a bit of philosophy.

/me likes opinionated software and uses Linux distributions like Void, Artix and Alpine. My favourite text editor is kakoune.

I use they/them pronouns.

You can talk to me in English or German.

Vala project setup script

Completed - This project is a lua script that automates the process of setting up a project with vala, meson and git. Similar to what happens when yo tell cargo or go to create a new project. It also sets up some helper scripts and a README with build instructions.

DDB - Object Key Vale Store

Actively used, needs some love - DDB is a simple in memory key value store with the goal to serve as IPC (Inter Process Communication) infrastructure between simple and less simple scripts.
