About me:

My name is pepino, I am a teen programmer from the netherlands. I make mostly frontend websites and games but also some simple backend things with for example python.

This page is my story on how I got to coding and how I plan to keep on coding.

Have fun reading...

The Beginning:

I got into coding around the corona period. We were all home from school and I was bored, so I decided to start making games. First very simple ones, with some game engine made by the dutch tv show het klokhuis.

Quickly I fell in love with the idea of creating something and other people actually playing and maybe even liking it

The engine that I used got shut down near the end of the corona period tho so it quickly ended. I did start with scratch but found it boring quickly so I fully stopped coding soon after.

The Great Restart:

When I got into high school I wasn't coding much anymore. Until about third grade of high school

When I was in third grade I became friends with someone else who loved coding and it was because of him and someone else I started coding again

For the first time I started actually using github codespaces and I started learning python to make my first project, a python based login system in the terminal

My first Hack Club project:

My friend introduced me to hack club in third grade.

I didnt know what it was at first but quickly got familiar with it. I made a slack account and joined my first ysws. High seas

I made a beginning on my first project, the python login script, I worked on it for a while until high seas ended. I did not have time to ship it so I kinda stopped working on it as a whole. I also did not finish it until about 2 years later

My own hack club:

A little while ago now I started getting more active in the programming community again

I started my own Hack Club at school with the friend from earlier and started updating my login script again

I also recently started working on my first actual own game project. A mascot horror game inspired by popular games like garten of banban and poppy playtime. I first made this just to just learn modelling, game making, simple coding, using engines and more but my ideas are becoming more and more of a reality every time I work on it.

What now?

My story continues as I learn more and more

I made this website to report on what I am doing and I probably will update it on new projects and developments once in a while. I will also update it with devlogs really soon where you will be able to track everything I do and make.

As I learn more and more about hacking and coding I will hopefully one day be good at it.

Hope you liked reading my story. For now, Pepino out.

Coming soon...
