I'm a software engineer from Granada, Spain, currently working at Izertis. I like building things end to end: from the database and the API to the UI that people actually touch, and occasionally down to the C code behind a desktop widget.

Desktop tooling for Noctalia, the Wayland shell I use every day. All of them are MIT and available from the plugin store.
A desktop widget that fades a sticker in and out with real audio playback. A small C helper reads PipeWire output stream states, so a paused player (or a browser tab that never let go of the device) does not keep the sticker on screen. Supports static images and animated GIFs.
Published in the official community store through noctalia-dev/community-plugins #1092.
Two focused plugins that turn one key into "clip while gaming, sticker otherwise". miixz/reaction shows a sticker with a sound; miixz/game-clip decides between saving an instant replay and showing the sticker, and keeps the replay buffer alive only while a game has focus, so desktop work never pays for an idle encoder.
A lightweight file conversion web app built with Astro 5, React 19 and TypeScript. Convert images, archives and documents right in the browser, with server-side processing, for free.
A cloud-native recipe management application from the Cloud Computing master's course at UGR. TypeScript and Node.js, containerized with Docker and shipped with full CI/CD pipelines.
A full-stack web application built with Astro and TypeScript, with authentication and a Tailwind CSS interface.
An immersive web escape room built with Three.js. The final project for the Computer Graphics course, and still a fun excuse to play with 3D in the browser.
An interactive site to explore the contributions of great scientists through history, with a PHP/MySQL backend and an HTML/CSS/JavaScript frontend.
Outside of work I maintain my own desktop and a small home server, which is where most of my tinkering happens:
- Hyprland configured in Lua, with a split module tree, custom Solaar key translations and MangoHud wired to the keyboard's G-keys.
- Sunshine + Moonlight for game streaming, and a DualSense lightbar daemon that steps aside while a game is running.
- Docker Compose stacks for media, reverse proxy and self-hosted services.
- Small utilities around peripherals: Litra Beam tied to camera usage, a G560/G733 audio switcher, and a
machine-factsgenerator so hardware-specific values never end up in Git.
The dotfiles repo is private, but the reusable pieces (installers, systemd units, scripts) live publicly in the repositories above.
