Hi there, I'm Mr Henderson! 👋

Ubuntu Python Bash

🚀 Student Developer | Focused on Python & Automation

I am a self-directed learner, building projects and documenting my learning journey as I go.

💻 My Setup & Background

  • OS: Recently transitioned from Windows to Ubuntu Pro LTS Desktop (loving the Linux workflow!).
  • Language: Currently mastering Python and computer programming fundamentals.
  • Git: Learning version control locally and syncing my progress here.

🧠 My Learning Philosophy & AI

I’m a firm believer in using modern tools to solve timeless problems. As I navigate the early stages of my Python and Bash journey, I don't shy away from using Artificial Intelligence to deconstruct complex logic or debug tricky errors. It’s like having a digital mentor available 24/7.

I find the most value in "Micro-Tools", small functional scripts that serve a clear, immediate purpose. I’m focused on writing code that is readable, purposeful, and practical.

🧰 Featured Utility Scripts

  • uk-keyboard-inverter-: My custom keyd solution for a symbol-first workflow on the UK ISO layout.
  • bulk-purchase-estimator: A Python-based tool for streamlining calculations and cost projections for larger orders.

📝 Documentation & Help Guides

I love making Markdown cheat sheets! I find that breaking down difficult concepts into simple, scannable guides is the best way to learn. Expect to see various "cheat sheet" repositories here as I find new ways to simplify coding and applications.

🛠️ What I'm working on

  • Transitioning my local Git projects to GitHub.
  • Creating "Cheat Sheets & Help Guides" in Markdown to help other beginners.
  • Automating my Ubuntu LTS desktop workflows.
  • Learning Python in VS-Code & Coddy.
  • Learning Bash locally on my desktop.

🎯 Current Goals

  • Build using Python on my Ubuntu machine.
  • Master the Ubuntu terminal and Bash. Always-learning!
  • Keep reading my book, Python Crash Course by Eric Matthes.

“Learning is the only thing the mind never exhausts, never fears, and never regrets.”
