About Me

Oct 3, 2026 (3)

Hobbies

Wrestling
Keeping the body moving, and the blood flowing.

Programming
I mean, who would have guessed?

Drawing
While there is not much time for that
anymore, it is still my hobby.

Interests

Systems
Deep diving into low level,
knowing whats happening underneath.

Open Source
Building in public, letting people
contribute, and do things together.

Homelabbing
Because apparently a cloud server
isn't enough control.

Me, again...

Projects

Pulse · · · C & Linux & Monitor

Created 2026
A small monitoring system, written purely in C. Developed in the open, and licensed under MIT.

Currently the main project, having multiple contributors. Its main idea is not to replace the big competitors.

Its simplicity is on purpose. You can install it, and run it instantly, with no configuration whatsoever. Pulse remains one of my biggest projects to day.

zeP · · · Zig & PM

Created 2025
A package manager for the Zig programming language. The development of it was really quick, however the development stopped after a while.

Because Zig (during 2025/26) was in its 0.x.x era, a lot of the language changed a lot.

zeP will still remain one of my biggest projects, and my start to my low-level era.

PDC · · · C & PNG & 3D

Created 2026
Simple PNG decompressor written purely in C. The goal of the project, is to turn a 2D image into a 3D landscape.

However, the development was quickly ceased after the start of my dual-study.

PDC is still a big project, that helped me learn C very quickly, and helped me build my base knowledge.

Mert Küçükhüseyin
is active in various social media platforms. Specifically, and very importantly for developers, is his activity on GitHub. Here, you can see not only his worked, but also help, and contribute to a vast majority of his projects.

Furthermore, you might catch him posting stuff, and giving his opinion on topics on Twitter (now knows as X).

If all forms of communication fail, then you can be sure, that his E-Mail is always active, and he is constantly checking it for new messages. Do not be afraid, (apparently) he does not bite. [email protected]

Thanks dearly for reading the news, and be sure to check on it, for newer, and other creative minds that might appear on this planet.

This was all.
