I'm Byron, a computer science student at Colorado School of Mines. I like to make things, learn technologies, and explore the world, both physically and conceptually.
Projects
pear [Blasterhacks 2025]
Go
Pear allows multiple people to simultaneously access and use a terminal in real time. Users are connected via
libp2p; since stdin and stdout are streams, they can simply be copied over the network. I mostly worked on figuring out how to connect multiple nodes withlibp2p. The whole project is written in Go.see it on GitHub

TypeScript, Svelte, JavaScript, CSS, HTML
My website does a lot of things, but they can all be simplified as using Javascript to turn JSON, images, and Markdown into a static site made of HTML and CSS. Almost all the content of the site is generated from metadata. I use the excellent Svelte framework to accomplish this.
