About

Elliot.

Software Developer · Gjøvik, Norway

I'm Elliot — a software developer based in Gjøvik, Norway, studying Programming at NTNU. I build foundations and tools: the Stellar Minecraft modding stack (Armature + Tenet) and Tauri + Rust desktop apps like kern and galdr, alongside TypeScript web products like yomion and loom. Most of what I build ships under aaen studios.

Most recently I worked as a Software Developer at Skatteetaten (the Norwegian Tax Administration) for two years on internal tools like Bikube, Innflyttingsportalen, and MinSide — a scrum team of nine. I'm now in my first year of the Programming bachelor at NTNU in Gjøvik, and spend most of my time on the Stellar foundations and the loom desktop agent.

When I'm not coding, I'm usually making something: pixel art, ASCII generators, language-learning apps, or a niche utility for a Minecraft server. I love retro web aesthetics, the Norse/rune naming tradition (Galdr, kern, yomion), and finishing what I ship — my Minecraft mods have passed 2.6M combined downloads across Modrinth and CurseForge.
