About
Hello, I'm Tawanda!
At my core, I'm a story-teller. I used to think one could only tell stories with words, but apparently one can do just as well with code.
I started using Linux about 4 years ago and that's completely changed my outlook on technology. I subsequently moved my blog from WordPress and Medium to managed PaaS and, finally, to my own cloud server. I use mostly open-source software and self-host what I can. The best part of self-hosting things is that things will inevitably break and you'll learn a lot trying to fix them.
I'm multilingual and speak, in order of proficiency: Shona, English, and Chinese.
I'm currently building Shopify apps with Zapiet. You can find out more about my work history here.
I'm also working on and planning to launch a digital learning platform soon which should allow me to scale up my technical writing.
I have a reading list, which is just a bunch of books I've read that I think everyone should read, too.
Beyond that, I'm a football fan and have been supporting Manchester City for almost two decades (basically, my whole football watching life). I live in Harare, Zimbabwe with my lovely wife.
