Hi, I’m Sam — a hobbyist Windows developer who loves building useful tools, exploring the Windows API, and solving problems for fun.

Here you’ll find the projects I’ve been tinkering with, a few experiments, and the occasional programming rabbit hole.

About Me

I’ve been programming since 1999 and fell in love with VB.NET back in the early 2000s. These days, I mostly build Windows tools with VB.NET and enjoy diving deep into the Windows API.

P/Invoke, memory management, and low-level Windows stuff? Yes please.

When I’m not coding, I’m probably gaming, listening to music, or tinkering with something that will either make my life easier or become completely unnecessary.

These projects are old, abandoned, or simply terrible.
They’re here because deleting them would erase part of the journey.
