Hola 👋
I'm Alejandro AR (a.k.a. kinduff).
I really like writing code, playing games, reading and watching movies and TV shows. I love discovering new technologies, learning how to use them and sharing my knowledge. If I'm not drinking coffee in front of the computer, you can find me in a park reading.
This is my house in triple double u. This house is alive, so you will be able to find content whenever you visit.
I recommend you add it to your bookmarks, take a look at the blog and my projects. You can also subscribe via RSS.
