Welcome!

Hello, welcome to my blog! This is where I collect my projects and other thoughts!

This website is divided in these sections:

  • Arduino: hardware projects and my journey logbook in electronics;
  • Programming: all of the software I wrote;
  • Italy: stuff that is either in Italian or only relevant if you live there;
  • Blog: works in progress, thoughts, ideas, unit tests, documentation, and everything else.

You can find most resources via the sidebar or the header menu. Have a look around, follow me on social media to receive updates!
