Welcome to the Spader Zone, a magical place in which all wishes shall be fulfilled and all life illuminated by the gentle radiance of being. I’m working on writing a high quality build system and a real standard library for C, but I also love to write music, make video games, and write fiction. Feel free to get in touch for any reason.
