Robotodos

Hello friend, and welcome to Robotodos. My name is Adam and I spend a good portion of my time studying web development and tinkering with the odd robotics project. Eventually I realized that a lot of what I have learned along the way could help others on the same path.

So stick around for a while if you enjoy reading about technical tutorials, soft skills learning, and web development lessons I have learned the hard way, so you dont have to.

Please feel free to comment or contact me if you have something to say.
