Computer Technology
Edit on GitHubI've been into computer programming ever since I was a kid. Back when I was about 10 my dad bought me a book on QBASIC programming. After that came C. Then HTML/CSS/JavaScript. Then in college: Java, C#, Visual Basic, .NET, SQL, Linux shell scripting, and more. Throughout my career I have taken extensive notes on all kinds of languages, libraries, frameworks, and other topics. The details of all these are more than I could ever fit in my head. Let's see if I can make some of these notes public and help others besides myself. I expect this section of the website to grow rather large, so I have organized it into the sub-sections below.
