Sena Abebe, full-stack developer, Addis Ababa

I design and build digital products that actually make sense.

Hey, I am Sena, a web developer based in Addis Ababa. My specialties are Go, TypeScript, and Next.js, but I like to dabble in a little bit of everything.

About

Who am I.

/1

What do I do?

Most of my time is spent building backends in Go or designing UIs that don't look like they were made in 2005.

/2

What I care about

I'm a fan of clean code and thoughtful design. I try to keep things simple and avoid overcomplicating problems just to look smart.

/3

The promise

I build stuff that moves the needle. No fluff. If it doesn't add value, it's not getting built. It's as simple as that.

Currently building

Aeon

Aeon is an all-in-one student organization tool that keeps planning, tasks, and deadlines in one place. It will be available for public use in July.

In development

Work

Selected works.

A selection of my best work. Products, developer tools, and the occasional terminal obsession.

Nexuset

EdTech

A learning platform for both children and adults, with several difficulty levels to cater to different learners. Perfect for students who want to master geography or science without the usual headache.

Developer tool

A high-performance CLI tool built in Go that summarizes GitHub contributions directly in the terminal. Fast, reliable insight into repository activity via the GitHub GraphQL API.

Monkeytui

CLI

A terminal tool influenced by Monkeytype. I like typing tests and I prefer terminals to GUIs, so I built a tool that brings the two together.

Browser extension

Jijira scans any webpage you're on and converts every price to your currency of choice, right where it sits. No switching tabs, no mental math.

Tooling

A networking tool that displays detailed information about current connections. Built with Go and Bubble Tea, because CLIs should look as good as they perform. Works on Linux, macOS, and Windows.

Stack

What I work with.

Things I've spent thousands of hours on. I'm pretty good at these, and I'm working on many more.

Backend

Go

My go-to for high-performance backends. Fast, simple, and concurrent.

Frontend

React

Building interfaces that don't make users want to quit the internet.

Language

TypeScript

Because catching errors in production is a bad hobby.

Frontend

Tailwind

Centering divs so you don't have to.

Framework

Next.js

The standard for when I need things to actually load fast.

Backend

Node.js

Scaling APIs with JavaScript when Go is overkill.

Data

PostgreSQL

Reliable data storage for when integrity actually matters.

Design

Figma

Where the pretty stuff happens before the code.

Language

Python

Great for scripts, AI, and when I'm feeling lazy.

Tooling

Neovim

Because the mouse is the enemy of productivity.

Infra

Docker

It works on my machine, and now yours too. Containerization is life.

Data

Supabase

Firebase, but better because it's Postgres. Instant backend without the pain.

Journal

I also have a blog.

I write about code, design, and technical subjects that I find interesting. No philosophy here, just plain developer talk and things I've learned along the way.
