Hello
My name is Vahid Hallaji. I am a software engineer based in Melbourne who develops web and mobile stacks. My lifelong passion for making software started when I happened to visit the source code of a blog back in the early 2000s. I just probed the source to satisfy my curiosity, and it continued throughout my life. I strive to use appropriate tools for the job regardless of its infrastructure, whether it is technically front end or back end. I got a nickname “Ruler” as I was the one to draw the lines for the outdoor games since my childhood.

OpenGL is an API for rendering 2D and 3D vector graphics. The API is used to interact with a graphics processing unit (GPU) to achieve hardware-accelerated rendering and it was developed by Silicon Graphics Inc. A long time ago, I programmed a simple game with C++ and OpenGL and published it on a Github repo.
