Hey, I am a computer science/software engineering student from Stuttgart, Germany. I am convinced that open source is the way to go, so I try to do my best to contribute my share to it.
Besides my studies, I also worked as a system operator, security administrator and lecturer at a college. During my bachelor's and master's program, I did some working-student jobs in the finance industry and a little social volunteering. Currently, I am in the last year of my study and work some hours per week as a freelancer in a german financial company.


Smart-Home related code in Home-Assistant and in also some integration for it, like

and also in AppDaemon itself and apps for it, like

  • πŸ’‘AutoMoLi, a fully automatic light management based on motion and other smart features.
  • πŸ‘©β€βš•οΈEnCh, to ensure your Home-Assistant entities will not run out of battery, not have undesired states and other checks.
  • ❄️NotiFreeze, which reminds to close windows if temperature difference inside/outside exceeds a specified threshold
  • πŸ₯Healthcheck, a simple health check app that is providing an API to use as a docker-compose health check for AppDaemon or similar.

Security-related projects I contributed to include
