About Me

I'm Nicholas Wells Neville, a software developer based in Australia. By day I work in accounting software; outside of that I build general-purpose tools and spend time researching and implementing software and hardware ideas that catch my interest.

I design with future maintenance in mind: reliable technologies, solid version control, thorough research, and iterative improvement. I care about performance, accessibility, privacy, and shipping things that feel good to use.

When I'm not coding or researching, I'm usually playing games, listening to music, or sketching out potential projects.
