Hi there! I'm Batuhan!
Who am I?
My name is Batuhan Y. Yılmaz and I live in Türkiye. I'm currently 19 years old and majoring Electrics and Electronics Engineering and working as a profuct designer in a local factory.
Most people call me handy becouse I can do lot's of things at the same time. Some of them being web and mobile app design, web developement, product design, writing blogposts and mostly managing Linux servers. But for me all those things are a part of my life.
Journey as a web developer
My web design and developement journey has started back in May 2023. Before I got my first job, I started to learn web design and after getting that design job, I started to learn web developement from the people I work with and spend 2 months with learning web technologies such as ReactJS and frameworks such as NextJS and after that I created my first website.
That website was for people I worked with and after that I started to develop my own projects such as Rubidium (the website you're currently in) and Caesium. After developing my first projects, the web developers I worked with has started to give me front-end jobs for their websites. And while I'm doing their jobs I also started to do fron-end jobs for other people until Febuary of 2024. At that time I was already won enough money from that job and since I'm a engineering student, my classes became more harder every day and becouse of that I quit my job and focused more on my academic life.
Right now web developement is one of my side-jobs I do when I got some free time. But I have different plans for my future web developement career.
Journey as a Linux user
Back in 2012 I got my first desktop computer and that changed my entire life. Before that computer I always used my dads laptop for playing Flash based games online but when I got my first desktop computer I began to learn more things about computers from internet. First things I learned was the history of those devices and after discovered a thing named "Unix" and when I started to learn more about it, I found out an operating system named Linux and a Turkish made distro named Pardus.
But at those times my main interest was in games and other stuff just like any 10 year old child. Until 2014. When I started on 5th class, we had a computer teacher that used Linux and after him I searched up on internet and learned more about it. And that ended up with me accidentaly deleting Windows and installing Linux Mint 17.2.
And since that day I mainly use Linux on my computers.
My interests
As I talked above, I have so many interests and counting them would take a lot of time for me to write and same for you to read. But in a summary, I'm interested in pretty much everything that ivolves around technology.
