YAPPING

hello, I am Yufei!

You can probably relate to me, as I used to try to find my passion by experimenting with many different things during middle school until high school.
I am a former GFX artist and 3D modeler for mostly Roblox games back in 2020 until 2024. The essential tools I used were Photoshop and Blender. Like almost everyone, I started out by making some GFX for fun and selling some of my work to my friends for a small amount of money. Not long after, I started to gain traction through joining GFX communities on Discord and Twitter (X) and started to get more and more clients. Things did work out pretty well and I made a decent earning while gaining more popularity in the Roblox community and experience especially through advertisements on Twitter (X) or Discord. A few years pass and I became totally burnt out for graphic design and decided to take a break and put more focus on my studies.
As for the 3D modelling aspect, I am knowledgeable in making low poly models and doing some basic texturing. I did make some sales on the side but it wasn't really my main focus. These years were my most important years because it allowed me to explore my interests and develop my skills in those areas.

With my interest for computers, which started out when I got my first PC at 8, and my experience in graphic design, I began exploring other areas, such as web development, as I figured that my skills would be useful in designing websites. I didn't really start code until I signed up for a 1 week course for HTML and CSS at a 42 coding school on-campus in 2024. Near the end of 2025 I developed an interest for Linux servers and networking. During that time I hosted various applications on my homelab like cloud services or game servers. Therefore, I learned a lot about server management and networking.

Overall, the most important thing I realised is that I have the most fun playing around with software and computer systems to the point that I will keep going at it and develop better skills over time.
