# Hi there 👋

I’m Erika Heidi (she/her), a technical writer and creative developer passionate about open source and Linux. I’m also a hobbyist 3D designer in my free time, working with NomadSculpt, FreeCAD, and OpenSCAD to bring designs to life with 3D printing.

I currently work as Developer Experience Engineer at Chainguard, where I create documentation and other educational resources linked to Supply Chain Security. Previously, I worked as Technical Writer at DigitalOcean, where I wrote tutorials about Linux, systems administration, devOps, and PHP.

I believe in content soveregnity and that’s why I set up this blog. In times where you can’t trust search engines and AI recommendations, having your own curated space with human-made content is what we need to heal the web ❤️

Open Source

I thoroughly enjoy working on experimental applications and small side projects. If coders had a style, I’d say mine is minimalist and/or indie.

Open source has always taken a special place in my heart, and what I like the most about it is the aspect of “learning in public”, essentially sharing what you are working on and feel excited about, since it may be useful for other folks even if just as an inspiration. Here’s some projects I have worked on:

• Minicli - A minimalist framework for command-line centric PHP apps.
• GDaisy - A templating system for dynamically generating images with PHP-GD.
• Librarian - An experimental file-based CMS / markdown document indexer in PHP.
