My name is Mark Wilkins, a software developer from Toronto Canada. I love animals, tech, food, games, helping people, and travel. Not necessarily in that order!
Many of my projects focus on one (or more!) of these things!
I work at WealthSimple and The Toronto Humane Society.
I love to hack away on things. If you would like to colaborate, please drop me a line! You'll find some of my skills/interests below.
- Raspberry Pi (or similar) projects
- Screeps
- Machine Learning
- Learning new languages! (next up... Rust?)
- Video Game Development
Ps. Big thanks to @BeckyPollard for the readme design inspiration!

Javascript was the first programming language I truly felt like I mastered, and as such I have a deep love for the language (and its cousin, Typescript). I'm familiar with almost all popular frameworks and libraries to some extent, with the notable exception of Angular (but I'm working on that!). Below some of my preferred tech is listed.
-
Python has quickly become one of my favorite languages. Its versatility and ease of use cannot be overstated.
-
I have worked with a variety of tools to host/run web applications, services, etc. These are some of my favorites.
-
While I am familiar with PHP, it's not my favorite language. Often my use of it is related to environmental constraints (ex. hosting a site on a PHP enabled cPanel/apache type service), ease of use, or legacy code.
Nothing right now 🙃
