HollowNumber

I build the tools I wish existed.

BEng Software Technology student at DTU, RPA developer at DSB, mostly writing Rust.

About

Most of what I build on the side starts as an annoyance: a note workflow that should be one command, a word count Typst couldn't give me. I reach for Rust when I can, and care about tools that are fast, predictable and pleasant to use.
