Brazilian hobbyist programmer. I mostly do my own thing but I've contributed to some free and open source projects.
I created the lone programming language, a lisp for Linux:
https://github.com/lone-lang/lone
The projects I've published are on GitHub:
https://github.com/matheusmoreira/
I can be reached via email:
hn@matheusmoreira.com
I also have my own website:
https://www.matheusmoreira.com/
If you like my work, consider sponsoring me:

No pressure though. I do this because I enjoy it.

It makes me dizzy. I have no idea what is going to happen within even a year from now, can barely even imagine it. I'm trying to get the most out of it by redlining my AI subscriptions. Hopefully…
