Hi! 👋

I’m nokyan, a 24 years old software engineer and open-source enthusiast from Germany.

I graduated from Saarland University of Applied Sciences (htw saar) with a Bachelor of Science in Applied Computer Science.

In my free time, I like to work on my open source projects such as Resources or take care of my cats.

You can find my contact information and socials in the left sidebar. Feel free to shoot me a (preferably encrypted) email or write me on Matrix.

Hi everyone,

I started using a new Hugo theme, Poison. I think it looks neat!

Resources has joined GNOME Circle!

Sat, 24 Aug 2024 11:57:10 +0200

Hey everyone!

I’m proud to announce that yesterday, Resources has joined GNOME Circle! It now lives happily next to all the other awesome GNOME apps that reside within the Circle.

To complement Resources’ admission to GNOME Circle, I’ve also released Resources 1.6 yesterday with mostly internal changes and some new features!

Featurewise, Resources now supports commandline arguments to help with debugging and testing. Not only the main binary itself has been equipped with commandline arguments, its companion executable resources-processes has also been updated to accept CLI arguments, which will come in handy with debugging process and app detection.

Resources 1.5.1 has been released

Sun, 07 Jul 2024 10:48:25 +0200

If you didn’t know, I’m the maintainer of a graphical system monitoring tool for Linux, specifically GNOME, called Resources!

Today I have released version 1.5.1, which includes a couple bugfixes and improvements for Resources’ application for GNOME Circle.

I’d really appreciate if you’d give Resources a spin, installing it is easy from Flathub using your trusty graphical software manager such as GNOME Software or KDE Discover. Thanks. :)

Also, here’s a new cat image: Nali being peacefully asleep. 😴

Resources

Sun, 08 Oct 2023 00:00:00 +0000

Resources is a simple yet powerful monitor for your system resources and processes, written in Rust and using GTK 4 and libadwaita for its GUI. It’s capable of displaying usage and details of your CPU, memory, GPUs, NPUs, network interfaces and block devices. It’s also capable of listing and terminating running graphical applications as well as processes.

The app is licensed under the GNU General Public License v3 with source code available on GitHub. Resources is distributed mainly via Flathub, an app store for Linux compatible with most modern distros, leveraging Flatpak for easy deployment and sandboxing. There are also unofficial packages available for Arch Linux and Fedora Linux.

Welcome to my personal website! I don’t plan on publishing blog posts or other stuff here to often, I will mainly use this site as a landing page and list for my social media and contact details.

I might post cat pics though. :)

Cheers,
