Sven (or Zerg, depends on what's easier to pronounce)
Software engineer. Tinkerer. Accidental writer.
Hey, I'm Sven (online: Zerg). I'm a software engineer who'd rather be building things than talking about them — except I've learned the talking-about-them part is kind of the point. By day it's mostly C# and the Microsoft stack; by night I tinker with side projects, half of which actually work.
The Hatchery is my workshop window: where I bring those hatchlings out into the open, write about the weird detours they took, and jot down the stuff I wish someone had written down before I had to figure it out the hard way.
LISA is the mascot. She's a sassy chibi with strong opinions, mostly about me, and she's here to make sure I never take any of it too seriously.
Hire me
Day job aside, I take on contract work through CrossAge Studio — building .NET products and wiring real AI into them. If you've got something that needs building, fixing, or an LLM done properly, here's the serious version of all this.

Support the Hatchery
The Hatchery is a hobby project. If something I wrote saved you an afternoon of head-scratching and you'd like to say thanks, there's a tip jar.
