About Me
What's up, guys? I'm Zi Lii, pursuing a Software Engineering degree at the University of Malaya. Oh, your name is Zi Lii, then who is Eren? Well FYI, I'm a big fan of Attack on Titan, so I named myself Eren, but please just call me Zi Lii because it is cringe when people call me Eren HAHAHAHA.
In 2020, my programming journey began because I wanted to build games. I found a lot of fun in building stuff, especially when I could share the games/apps I created with my friends and family. Every time I had free time, I would open up my VS Code and start coding. I have built multiple personal and freelance projects using the MERN stack for full-stack web development and Flutter for mobile apps. Currently, I'm learning Next.js to utilize the power of SSR (Server-side Rendering).
Starting in 2024, I plan to utilize my programming skills to start my own business. The business model will be SaaS (Software as a Service). I have learned a lot about business and marketing from many indie hackers and solopreneurs on social media. My goal is to achieve financial freedom before I reach the age of 30.
