Hi there, I’m Rafael Milewski, a full-stack developer living in China for over a decade. I build all sorts of things, mostly with PHP and Rust, while also tinkering with hardware like ESP32 boards and contributing to open-source projects.
- I use both
QWERTY
andColemak
keyboard layouts. - People ask me which OS do I use? MacOS at work, NixOS at home, Windows on weekends.
- I learned electronics to teach my children how to build their own toys.
- I collect breakout boards as if they were collectables. Gotta Catch 'Em All!.

- I love tinkering with hardware! Whenever I’m bored, I grab a random breakout board and write a driver for it.
- I enjoy discovering music in languages I don't speak. Sometimes I hit the jackpot: OTYKEN Uuhai
- Verilog: I’ve bought a few FPGA boards, and writing hardware code is fascinating!
- WebAssembly: Still searching for the perfect project to apply my Wasm knowledge.
- AI development: Current frameworks make it simple, but I want to go beyond them.
