Hi there! I'm Syawal, and I like building things. I'm a teacher and app developer with a focus on crafting clear, usable interfaces and lightweight products that help people work faster.
I believe good technology is simple and usable by anyone. As a teacher, I am used to explaining complex things in an easy-to-grasp way — and I bring that habit into everything I build.
Currently, I'm building small products that solve real problems, one of which is Metadata Studio — a workspace for microstock creators to generate titles, descriptions, and keywords with AI assistance.
