C purist dedicated to bare-metal systems programming. My philosophy: zero dependencies and zero dynamic memory allocation. I consider malloc an enemy, preferring predictable stack-based and static memory for ultimate stability. Due to limited hardware access, I craft and debug my code directly on a smartphone. This constraint has forced me to become a disciplined architect, focused on tiny, high-performance binaries where every byte is justified. My goal is to push the limits of pure C and maintain "zero-bloat" open-source tools.
