Hey, I'm Arslaan!

I’m a 13-year-old developer exploring systems programming, Linux, FOSS, reverse-engineering, jailbreaking, and a bit of embedded systems.

I like computer science, writing stories (sometimes), Linux, FOSS (Free Open-Source Software), hacking, reverse-engineering and iOS jailbreaking. My favorite colour is yellow, and my favorite genre of music is Hyperpop, particularly Hyperpop-Digicore & Hyperpop-Glitchcore. I work on various projects in low-level development, system programming, and hardware hacking. I'm also active in Hack Club, a community of over 100,000+ teens around the world who code together. Come join the Slack and say hi!

I mainly use Void Linux on my ThinkPad E16 Gen 3 (Intel Core Ultra 7 255H) with the MangoWM tiling window manager (mainly the scrolling layout) alongside Waybar, gtklock, wofi, and more. Currently, my dotfiles are not available on Git, but hopefully that will change in the near future. My favorite games are osu!, Minecraft and Stick Fight: The Game. I’ve been programming and tinkering with devices since somewhere around the age of six. What originally got me into programming was looking at my old iPad 2 (which I still have as of 2025, seven years later - it's now jailbroken with EtasonJB because I felt like it) and saying – “how are these apps made?”

Feel free to explore my projects, stories, and achievements, and thanks for stopping by!
