# About Me

Hello — I'm **Gauvain Boiché**, a computer science student and developer based in France.

I build things at the intersection of systems programming, web technology, and good design. This terminal is itself a small project: a static portfolio that navigates like a Unix filesystem.

## Background

I started programming by taking apart old software and curiosity about how things work at a low level. That thread has run through everything since — from writing bare-metal code to designing distributed systems to crafting interfaces that feel just right.

## Education

- **Master's in Computer Science** — in progress
- Coursework: algorithms & complexity, operating systems, distributed computing, machine learning fundamentals
- Strong academic record with particular interest in systems and compilers

## What Drives Me

> The best technology disappears. You stop thinking about the tool and start thinking about the problem.

I care deeply about **correctness**, **performance**, and **clarity** — in code, in interfaces, and in communication. I prefer to understand things from first principles rather than cargo-cult patterns.

## Outside the Terminal

When I'm not at a keyboard, I'm probably reading about computing history, tinkering with vintage hardware, or trying to convince someone that Vim is not that complicated.
