Who is PolarWolf314?

My name is Aaron! I am currently a part 1 student, studying a BA/BE(hons) conjoint at the University of Auckland. Hopefully, I should be doing software engineering next year.

Why did I make this page?

Purely for interest, for fun, and for the sake of learning! I hope to be able to use this page to share notes and information, as well as learning web dev languages such as HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.

How am I hosting this website?

I am hosting this through GitHub pages, which allows you to host websites for free. The only catch is that it doesn't allow you to have your own domain, but all things considered, this is a great resource. You can find more information here.

Do you have a dog?

Yes! Her name is Tiki! If you'd like to collect some pet tax, click here!

What devices do you use?

I do most of my coding on my desktop, and on rare occasions I will code on my laptop (Lenovo Yoga C740). I take notes in lectures using my iPad Air 4th Gen with Apple Pencil, or my laptop, depending on what I need. My desktop, however, is my main machine, doing all the heavy lifting and is where I do basically all of my coursework. I am also deep in the Apple ecosystem with iPhone, Apple Watch, Airpods Pro, and iPad. Now, all I need is a Mac, and my transformation is complete...
