About Me

I’m Zinedine, a software developer from Algeria. I love building things that work well and look good to solve real-world problems. I’m passionate about learning tech related stuff,
especially in web development and cybersecurity. When I’m not coding, I like exploring open-source projects and staying up to date with the latest tech trends.
I’m a huge fan of Linux and open-source software. I’m always looking for new opportunities to learn and grow as a developer

Changelog from my journey

A snapshot of the milestones that shaped my path as a developer.

2024 - 2025

Leveling Up with Next.js & TypeScript:

Shifted my tech stack to full-stack Next.js and TypeScript, focusing on server components, app routing, and building scalable applications. I’ve deepened my knowledge of state management, authentication, and API design, aiming for production-grade architecture.

Building Real-World Systems:

Designed and developed a fully interactive Patient Management System prototype with lobby queues, appointment scheduling, and notifications. This pushed me to master relational databases (PostgreSQL), form handling, and backend logic while improving user experience.

Contributions & Mentorship:

Actively contributed to open-source projects and mentored junior developers. Shared my journey and learnings on GitHub and developer forums, growing a small but supportive network in the dev community.

Security & Systems Curiosity:

Continued to explore cybersecurity fundamentals and low-level system concepts, diving deeper into Linux internals, secure coding practices, and ethical hacking labs to understand systems from the inside out.

Exploration of New Domains:

Began experimenting with mobile and desktop app development, and started building a personal productivity suite tailored for developers. This included integrating notifications, time-blocking, and dashboard features into my projects.
