Technology

Practical, self-taught, evidence-led

A practical technical skillset built through real use — self-hosting, infrastructure, scripting and early software work — not a claim to senior engineering expertise. It's grouped by how it's actually used, and separated into what's been demonstrated on real projects and what's still developing. No percentage bars: they don't mean much for skills like these.
