About
I'm Cobalt, a 20-year-old hobbyist developer with a strong interest in building and maintaining software. I work on a variety of projects, including backends, bots, tools, and the infrastructure that supports them.
I enjoy working across the full stack, from servers, networking, and DNS to reverse proxies and user-facing interfaces. Most of my experience is self taught, developed through projects, experimentation, problem-solving, and continuously improving the systems I work with (banging my head against a wall).
Languages
Strongest first, and an honest read — not buzzword bingo.

Years of gameplay systems and scripting, Roblox above all.
-
C#Comfortable
Tooling, automation and backend logic.
-
JavaScriptComfortable
Frontend and Node backends — including this site.

ElixirBasics
Early days — drawn to the concurrency model and OTP.
-
C++Basics
Enough to read it and make small changes, no deep dive.
What I work with
Backend
APIs, databases, bots and services that have to stay up.
Frontend
Clean, fast interfaces without the extra weight — structure before effects.
Domains & DNS
Domain setups, DNS records, SSL, reverse proxies and mail configuration.
Self-Hosted Servers
Built and run my own locally hosted servers on games end to end for games which didnt support it.
Hardware
Builds, upgrades, troubleshooting and server setups from bare metal up.
Software & Systems
Windows and Linux, deployments, monitoring and everything in between.
Reverse Engineering
Non ProfessionalTaking systems apart to understand how they actually work.
