Hi, I'm aquiffoo

Aquiles Fernandes • Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

As a junior in high school, I develop tools and systems that focus on simplicity and performance. I'm interested in mathematics, large language models, and building software that solves real problems without unnecessary complexity.

Outside of school, I enjoy exploring low-level systems programming and machine learning research, creating projects that are useful, efficient, and open to everyone.

Interests

Mathematics (trigonometry, algebra, geometry), large language models, web development, command-line tools, systems programming, and ML research.

Open-Source Projects

🏖️

playa

github.com/aquiffoo/playa

🩶

supermin

github.com/aquiffoo/supermin

A C library that makes freeing memory (and sanity) much easier and more intuitive. Provides simple abstractions for memory management without sacrificing control.

🍷

goblet

github.com/aquiffoo/goblet

A lightweight Go web framework with a style reminiscent of Flask, but brewed for gophers. Focuses on simplicity and idiomatic Go patterns for building web applications.
