Hi, I'm Henry.

Getting Started

My journey into technology didn't start with a textbook — it started with a challenge. Curious about how online worlds are built and managed, I co-founded a Minecraft server and dove headfirst into Java development. What began as a gaming project quickly turned into a deep fascination with code and everything it makes possible.

Hardware & Hands-On

Growing up with a father who is an electrical engineer, I've always been drawn to the full picture — whether it's writing automation scripts, wiring up a garden house, or building local networks. That hands-on mindset led me to projects like Akku-Craft, a hardware-meets-software build that recently secured 1st place at the regional Jugend forscht competition.

Learning by Doing

My early steps in software included experiments like GrüneEule, an open-source browser tool collection. While that project has since retired, it taught me more than any tutorial could. I'm a firm believer in learning by doing — using a modern toolkit of AI and technical resources to pick up new skills fast.

The Full Stack

Managing servers over the years also introduced me to the power of Linux. Today I'm comfortable in environments like NGINX and Apache, and working with panels like Pterodactyl and Pelican. For me, programming has never been just a hobby — it's about understanding the entire stack, from the physical cable to the final line of code.
