Hello!

I'm Alvaro, from Venezuela. I live in an Emacs buffer somewhere in London. I write about all sorts over at lmno.lol/alvaro and xenodium.com, many of them Emacs-related, tech, cooking, travel, etc.

I built lmno.lol - Get your blog there (no ads, tracking, paywalls, or bloat).

I hope you find my content useful and it helps you improve all sorts of workflows (or maybe bake a cake?). I post lots of snippets and howtos.

I hear you like Emacs? I built emacs.tv. I've also written a handful of Emacs packages, some published on MELPA:

• agent-shell
• chatgpt-shell
• ready-player
• acp.el
• sqlite-mode-extras
• dwim-shell-command
• org-block-capf
• symbol-overlay-mc
• diverted
• video-trimmer
• company-org-block
• ob-swiftui
• ob-chatgpt-shell
• dall-e-shell
• ob-dall-e-shell
• shell-maker

You can find my Emacs config at my dotsies repo.

I've built some macOS utilities:

• Record/screenshot your macOS windows from the command line macosrec.
• EverTime: An ever-present floating clock for macOS.
• Use Fresh Eyes to take care of your eyes while on the computer.

I have a few of iOS apps on the App Store (powered by org plain text markup):

• Inspired by Atomic Habits, I wrote Flat Habits for iOS. Now on the App Store.
• I'm an Org mode fan, so I built Journelly and Plain Org for iOS.
• I needed an Emacs-inspired *scratch* buffer on iOS (who doesn't?), so I built *scratch*. You got it. On App Store too.
• I'm a beginner learning Japanese, so I built Mochi Invaders to help me learn Kana.

Have a nice day =)
