Hi Warp Team!

i'm august

I love your product and want to help build the terminal of the future

$ echo

what am I?

I am a skilled Rust and Typescript engineer who has collaborated with global teams to bring developers together, applies her skills to build beautiful products, and spends her free time tinkering and growing her skills.

This site was written in plain Typescript, and this demo is an emulator I wrote from scratch in Rust that was compiled to WASM and runs hand-written assembly in the browser at native speed.

At my last job with The Coding Train I worked with a global team of designers and educators to bring coding education to tens of thousands of monthly active users. I led implementation of the Passenger Showcase, which enabled hundreds of creative coders to have their projects featured on the site.

I'm both a talented engineer and creatively-driven. I studied at NYU ITP's undergrad program, Interactive Media Arts, where I applied my engineering skills to the arts, creating interactive musical watercolors, hidden message poetry, and networked oracles, just to name a few projects.

For fun I like to play with hardware, and lately I've been developing fuzzy, a programming language for my homemade computer george. Other spare-time projects I've written include svg canvases, generative audio markov chains, and ephemeral chat apps.

man for the future of coding

here's a feature idea...

I read up on your interview process and figured I'd skip straight to the best part!

The terminal of the future should blur the lines between TUI and GUI.

Here, I imagined an enhanced user interface for man that respects the developer and doesn't switch contexts or change their workflow.

(and here's a little server I wrote just for this demo)

Let's work together

Shoot me an email and let's set up an interview

I'm really excited to bring my skills to your team!
