Private developer site Austria

Personal technical workbench / projects / notes / experiments

Patrick

Programming has been part of my life since QBasic. This site collects what grows out of curiosity, learning and my own technical work-in-progress.

My professional path did not lead straight into computer science, but the enthusiasm for computers, programming and technology stayed. The domain came first; the homepage followed later, when my own services turned into a small technical workbench.

note

Not a service page and not a classic portfolio. More a place for things I want to understand, build or find again later.

Focus areas

Why this site exists

Not as a showcase, but as a personal place for projects, notes and technical experiments that grow out of genuine interest.

Curiosity

Trying ideas out

Many projects begin with a simple question: does this work the way I imagine it?

Workbench

Making my own services reachable

The website grew out of the wish to use my own tools and services while away from home.

Learning

Making technology tangible

Automation, self-hosting, AI workflows or game prototypes: the most interesting part is still the learning itself.

Current project

Current focus project

The current focus project shows which idea is occupying me most right now.

Focus project

A personal prototype for an Austrian alpine village simulation in a 2D top-down direction: the inn as a social center, small economic loops, odd village tasks and characters with rough edges. It is not a finished game yet, but a playable thinking space for gameplay, mood and asset workflows.

Projects here usually do not start from a finished plan, but from the wish to try something and learn from it.

What grows here

A personal technical workbench with visible traces.

Some things remain notes, others become small tools or prototypes. Those transitions are what interest me: from the first experiment to something that actually helps in everyday life or makes an idea tangible.

The About page gives more context; the Devlog is prepared for technical notes. Both grow slowly whenever there is something worth keeping.
