Introduction
Hi visitor!
My name is Niels Martignène, and I've been a programmer for over twenty years. It all began when I stumbled upon an old Amstrad CPC-6128 in my parents' attic, and found out you could use BASIC to program simple games on it.
Nowadays I work on various C++ applications/libraries, and some web applications. I also do some C and assembly programming. You can find information about some of the open-source projects I've worked on over the years on this website.
I'm available for hire, please contact me on niels.martignene@protonmail.com if you are interested.

libhs
libhs is a cross-platform C library to enumerate HID and serial devices and interact with them.
It is distributed as a single-file header. Drop the file in your project, add one define for the implementation and start to code without messing around with an arcane build system.

Meestic
Meestic is a small utility made to control the lights of MSI Delta 15 laptop keyboards on Windows and Linux. It provides both a CLI and a system-tray GUI, and can fully replace the official MSI tool (which is not even available for Linux).
