Hi there, I'm Kai!

You can also call me...

KDEVO

I'm an always evolving, free-minded software engineer, data scientist and maker from Aachen.

I'm very passionate about...

  • Researching how to improve human-to-human online communication, most recently via Reciprocal Recommender Systems – for finding the best people to connect to.
  • Creating user-friendly and high-quality Open-Source software (most of the time, FOSS).
  • Realizing solutions for a decentralized web with less intermediaries – for more freedom.
  • Tinkering with electronic stuff, creating a physical representation of my ideas with 3D printing, learning and sharing how to fix and customize anything – for less waste and more fun.

Sponsoring

If you like any of the visions above and below, you're welcome to become a day one sponsor.

Chaos

In my master's thesis, I took a deep dive into the data science world and the emerging field of Reciprocal Recommender Systems (RRS) which enable Human-to-Human recommendations.
As a result, I engineered Chaos, a first of its kind framework that aims to build a solid bridge between the research and development departments of RRS.

You can now...

Osprey Delight

Osprey Delight is a Hugo theme that aims to kick-start artists' online presences.
It's a clutter-free portfolio that ensures everyone finds your awesome work. As a high-performance static website, it runs anywhere with minimal resources, giving freedom and independence to you and delight to your visitors.

Recently, I teamed up with the fantastic Protonaut who produces Indie Rock and who now has a great website powered by the theme with a unique color scheme.

Hugo Mods

Hugo Mods is what enables your static Hugo website to power-up.
See some of the first modules at hugo-mods, but also make sure to check out the fantastic website which is built by the modules themselves, double-functioning as showcase.

@kdevo

Your support would make it possible that I only need to pay half the rent of my apartment. Reaching this goal allows me to stay more independent and focus at least 20% more on my FOSS projects.
