About me

Hi I'm Pietro T. (a.k.a. brailor), 19M.

My fields of interest are: embedded systems, cybersecurity, electronics and network programming.

I work mainly as freelancer but I maintain open-source projects in my spare time.

Here are some useful contact links: LinkedIn, Telegram. Checkout my GitHub to see what I like working on by yourself.

My open source projects:

• Rust Crates
  • ql-driver: Driver for the Brother QL-series thermal printer. Supports image rasterization and greyscale dithering.
  • netherite-rs: Rust library for the Minecraft protocol. It has all the basic building blocks for implementing your own packets through procedural macros.
• Linux / Networking:
  • xdp-loader: XDP loader with map pinning and configurable program array dispatching capabilities.
  • hopper-rs: an L7 reverse proxy for Minecraft. It supports metrics exporting and dynamic reloading.
• Embedded:
  • morse-gadget: A very elaborate electronics-related Valentine's day gift. A blog post about it is coming soon
  • alvik-idf: Library for interfacing with the Alvik hardware on esp32 with IDF on Rust.
  • ucpack: Body protocol of the Arduino Alvik
• Miscellaneous:
  • deezer-bot: Open source alternative to many music bots on Telegram.
  • hyperlight (discontinued): A JavaScript framework for building server side rendered applications with Hyperapp.
