Hello everyone!
This is Hassan Kanj, I already know about the website, but I just registered last week in order to reply to a post in the forum, and here's a brief about my story:
I am a programmer and I have a bachelor degree in computer science, I spent many years (and still) programming (websites, mobile apps,..), and later, I started experimenting with building and programming electronic devices (which was something I was so curious about since university, but unfortunately back then, I didn’t have the chance to follow this topic more or to buy all the needed tools to experiment with), so I decided to start allocating money to build my own Lab/Workshop, and gradually, I started buying tools (Drills, screwdrivers, bolts, nuts, soldering irons,...) and with time, my tools started to grow and my skills improved (and of course I am still learning and improving), and I was so passionate about mixing my programming skills and integrating custom programming code in the physical products I build, it was cool building websites and apps, but it is even cooler and more exciting (for me at least), to build a robot, a RC car, a bracelet with lights patterns, that include a cool design, and that can be controlled by a code I implement in these devices.
After building different personal projects, I decided that I really need a 3D printer, and a CNC machine. Both are useful to provide a more “professional” look to my products, and after saving some money, I bought my 1st 3D printer, and later, a small CNC machine.
I am also the host of an Arabic programming podcast called “coder voice - صوت المبرمج”
so in case anyone here is interested to discuss product design (and more specifically products that involve electronics components and microcontrollers) just let me know.
