I'm Byron, a computer science student at Colorado School of Mines. I like to make things, learn technologies, and explore the world, both physically and conceptually.
Projects
b-sharman.dev (this website!)
TypeScript, Svelte, JavaScript, CSS, HTML
My website does a lot of things, but they can all be simplified as using Javascript to turn JSON, images, and Markdown into a static site made of HTML and CSS. Almost all the content of the site is generated from metadata. I use the excellent Svelte framework to accomplish this.

Python, C++
Advent of Code is a set of competitive programming puzzles released every December. There is one two-part puzzle per day up through Christmas, each one harder than the last. I have been solving these puzzles for about three years now.
