Software

I’m a freelance full-stack software engineer. I work with various frameworks such as ReactJS, VueJS and nuxt.js for web development or React Native for mobile development. In terms of backend, I am familiar with Python-libs and packages like Django, Tornado or Flask. I’ve also done some small games in vanilla HTML/CSS/Javascript and PHP backends. Finally, I’ve realized some projects with the Unity game engine.

I’ve been playing games since I was 3, and I’ve always loved to deconstruct and analyze them to better understand what makes them fun. I enjoy finding the reason a game ticks, and I believe game development is an opportunity to learn about plenty of various domains (image creation, post-processing, music, sound design, algorithmics, narratives and story-telling…) and be part of an awesome community!

How to make a RTS game in Unity?

My Unity tutorials

Here is a list of short standalone tutorials I made about various Unity game dev topics: how to make smooth scene transitions, how to build a simple finite state machine, how to generate procedural heightmaps with mathematical noises, how to use gizmos for visual debugging and editing… All tutorials are available both in text and video formats!

Unity • C#

I’ve been programming since I was a kid – and, of course, I first started by doing some websites with basic web tech. Now, years later, I’m still working on websites but also on responsive apps, mobile content, museum interactive installations…

Throughout my studies, I’ve had the chance to discover the facinating new field of AI. After doing some hands-on data science projects, I’m now gradually shifting to sharing my thoughts on AI and society and exploring how it can support other domains, such as art.

Just because having a well-furnished toolbox is such a joy! I’m keen on those small standalone programs that perfectly perform one narrow task – and I think they’re a really sweet way of brushing up my skills with a programming language I’m less knowledgeable in… or just having fun with some short and well-defined objectives!
