I'm from Canelones, Uruguay, and see myself as a "Plug and Play" person. I love learning new things and dissecting them to understand how they work. For nearly 15 years, I've been writing a blog called cduser.com, a mix of Spanish and English content, aiming to make high-tech content accessible, especially for those for whom English is a barrier.
My daily tools include Python, React, InfluxDB, Traefik, Portainer, Terraform, Docker, Kubernetes (k3s), Telegraf, and more. Feel free to ask me about these; while I'm no expert, I'm always happy to share what I know. I've been coding in backend and frontend for over a year, building tools primarily for my use.
I'm an InfluxAce and won the Founder's Choice Award in 2020. I was also a Traefik Ambassador, thanks to my contributions to this fantastic solution and community.
Although my YouTube channels CDUser are somewhat abandoned, they still offer valuable content watched by hundreds monthly.
- EZCompose: A docker-compose file generator.
- FlyOrNot: A web page that advises on weather conditions for flying drones or engaging in aerial sports.
- Sourcesift: Combines a FastAPI backend with a React frontend, helping organize RSS feeds of news and podcasts.
- Squeeze: A Python tool that monitors website uptime, integrating with InfluxDB. It's a work in progress, with potential rewriting in the future (3/15/2024).
- Aerial Tours: After buying a drone, I began exploring Uruguay from above, sharing videos on this Youtube Channel.
When I'm not working on data projects or automating with Terraform, I enjoy riding my motorcycle, a Husqvarna Svartpilen 401.
