About Me

Hi! I'm Guillermo Estrada 👋

Daydreamer, analytical brainiac, shameless romantic, factual magician, practical poet, irrational empath, generative artist, ninja coder and mind reader.

I am a Senior Software Engineer with over 15 years of experience building scalable systems, exploring computer science algorithms, and diving deep into the intersection of technology and art.

This blog serves as my digital playground and public journal. Here, you'll find me writing about:

• Generative Art: Exploring visually pleasing algorithms with sketches via code.
• Systems Engineering: Deep dives into Go, WebAssembly (WASM), and building performant backend infrastructure.
• Frontend Tinkering: Experiments with component frameworks and modern JS/TS ecosystems.
• Clever Algorithms: Solving interesting problems with esoteric pieces of code.

I'm a big believer in the open-source philosophy. I love sharing what I learn, and I'm always happy to collaborate on interesting projects. If you have an idea you'd like to discuss, or if you just want to say hi, feel free to reach out!

Welcome, I hope you enjoy your stay!

Last but not least, all work by the author (Guillermo Estrada) in this project is open source, it is available on Github and is dual-licensed as follows:

All source code, is covered by the MIT License.

This means that you can use all code snippets, source files, and the blog code itself in ANY way you like! And I'm not responsible for anything you break with it 😁. The MIT License is one of the most permissive open-source license you can find.

All content and material is covered by the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International License.

This means that all non-code work: images, videos, audio, animation and the text of the posts themselves, is available for you to copy, redistribute, remix, transform, and build upon, in any medium and format, and for any purpose (even commercially), as long as you give me appropriate credit, and you distribute your contributions under the same license.

I kept it this way because CC licenses do not cover source code very well (or at all), and MIT License does not care about artwork. So dual-licensing gives us the best of both worlds. In short, use the content as you like, and I kindly ask for a link back to this blog is you find something awesome (or useful).

Finally, if you want to contribute, kindly do so in Github, I will be glad to collaborate with you! And if you like what you see, but can't contribute any other way, you can buy me a coffee ☕ to make sure I keep posting on time, I will be forever grateful. A coffee a day keeps the bugs 🐞 away! Make sure to tell me if you want your name in the list of contributors and a link to your site!
