About

I'm Tim Lui, a developer and photographer. I build software in Rust, TypeScript and Kotlin, including box, a command-line toolkit for PowerShell, and coin-flip, an Android app that tosses a fair 3D coin. I photograph the mountains around Zermatt, and this site puts each photograph back on the terrain where I took it.

To work together or ask about a photograph, use the contact page. To see what I'm building next, read the roadmap.
