I'm a developer with a Master's in Mechatronics Engineering who likes to ship things that actually run in production — full-stack web, mobile, AI-powered tools, and the occasional piece of hardware. I work terminal-first and AI-paired (Arch/Omarchy + Claude Code on the CLI), which keeps more of the work on architecture and judgment.
🖥️ joeyvigil.github.io — my portfolio
A developer portfolio that reads like a terminal session on an Arch box — Waybar status bar, tiled windows, nine themes, and a real shell you can type into (press `).

Mock tech interviews the rubber-duck way — a question is read aloud, you answer out loud, and your spoken answer is transcribed and graded against a rubric by a local LLM. Runs fully offline on Ollama; rubrics and model answers stay server-side so you can't peek. Swap the grader model from the home page.

A 3D-printable, hand-wired 49-key mechanical keyboard inspired by the v4n4g0n ergo layout — printed case, hand-soldered switch matrix, and a Pro Micro running QMK.

Small things I actually use every day, packaged so other people can install them too.
- 🎛️ omasettings — a terminal UI for Omarchy settings: theme, keybindings, displays, audio, notifications, all in one menu. On the AUR (
yay -S omasettings) and in Omarchy's install menu. Shell - 📌 omarchy-taskbar — pinned app icons for the Omarchy bar. Click to launch or focus, with running-state indicators; pin and unpin from the bar itself, no config editing. QML

dionysusHyprland rice: a One Dark / Nord hybrid keyed on neon cyan, carried into terminal, bar, lock screen, btop, Helix, Neovim, and VS Code.
