Experience
Opensource Github project contributor, Nyxt browser (written in Lisp) Oct 2020 - May 2022
• Improved and extended browser customization capabilities
• Polished the add-on system and wrote a few simple useful add-ons
• Documented the new customization changes and shared a fully functional example of my configuration
• Added functionality (a "visual mode" for more convenient keyboard-based highlighting, copying and pasting)
• Fixed various minor bugs

Opensource project contributor, Psi+ - a client for secure communication through Aug 2021
the XMPP protocol; written in C++
• Fixed a many-to-many end-to-end encryption plugin and fixed a problem with saving history of messages in an
encrypted groupchat
• Improved the outward API for plugins for further simplicity and frictionlessness

Projects
A cellular automata environment, written in Common Lisp github.com/kssytsrk/cellular-
automata
• This project simulates a cellular automata environment, with GUI included. Rulesets currently implemented are
all of the basic elementary/1-dimensional ones, totalistic and neighbour-number schemes, any 2-states
Neumann/Moore neighbourhood ones (if you can find the exact ruleset number, that is), Wireworld and Game
of Life.
• Tools Used: Common Lisp, quicklisp library fetcher, lispbuilder-sdl library (used for graphics only).

One-time pad encryption module github.com/kssytsrk/one-
time-pad
• A one-time pad encryption/decryption/pad generation command line tool implementation.
• Tools Used: Haskell
Single-cycle nibble CPU [teamwork with UCU students] github.com/BlueSkyAndSome
Curses/NibbleCpu
• Crafted a simple logic gate-based 4-bit processor, with 12-bit instructions, 15 possible commands, 8 4-bit general
purpose registers and 1 register for setting flags, and a 4-bit ALU module for arithmetic and logical operations.
Interrupts and jumps are also implemented, as well as halt operation.
• Tools Used: Assembler, Logisim, Proteus 8, breadboards, basic building blocks such as the ALU module

Technologies
