Software Engineer & Maker of Finly

About

Hey! I'm Louis, a software engineering student specializing in Data and AI. I love building fast, reliable, and privacy-focused software, combining modern web stacks (Next.js, React) with high-performance backends (FastAPI, Python). Big advocate for self-hosting, open-source architectures, and local data sovereignty. Currently launching Finly — an open-source, self-hosted personal wealth engine. Always happy to connect, discuss architecture, or test new developer tools.
