👋 Hey there!
If you are new to this channel: Hey 👋 my name is Flo and I am a professional software engineer with a passion for coding in Golang, TypeScript, JavaScript, and Rust. This channel is where I share that passion and dive into the exciting world of software engineering. Plus, I love using Emojis and paper-based animations (so have a look for that, if you want to find my videos).
