Hi, I'm Mohammed 👋

Current focus

This year, I'm deliberately investing most of my time into:

• Strengthening core backend foundations (data structures, algorithms, networking)

• Building low-level tools in Zig

• Exploring WebAssembly constraints, memory models, and error propagation

• Treating graphics as a systems problem, not just rendering

Trying to learn as much as I can!

🛠️ Selected projects

Polystack A 3D modelling and sprite stacking app made in Zig and WASM

Backend foundations

I actively work on backend fundamentals with an emphasis on:

• Clear mental models over rote solutions

• Understanding tradeoffs between approaches

• Writing code that is easy to reason about and evolve

This includes ongoing practice with data structures, algorithms, and system design concepts, often informed by constraints I encounter in lower-level work.

Topics I care about

• Memory models & allocators

• Error handling and failure modes

• Determinism in real-time systems

• WASM sandbox constraints

• Data-oriented design

• Tooling that compounds over time

Learning in public

I occasionally write about what I'm building and learning:

• Long-form notes: Substack

• Short-form discussions with local developers on Telegram

My goal is clarity and reflection.

I care more about understanding systems deeply than moving fast — and I’m comfortable taking the long route to get there
