tldr Amal;

Welcome to my little niche on the internet.

Hi, I’m Amal—a programmer by day, Potterhead by night, and curious tinkerer by choice.

Here you’ll find my adventures in code, tech, and the occasional detour into life’s quirks. I love hacking, experimenting, and (let’s be honest) occasionally breaking things—because that’s how you really learn, right?

When I’m not wrangling bugs or tinkering with FOSS projects, you’ll catch me vibing to music or lost in a book that I swear I’ll finish this time.
