About Me
Some random info about myself :3
Hey, I'm coolGi (She/Her)
A small programming garl in Australia
best known for my work on Distant Horizons
(an LOD mod for Minecraft)
I like to work with OOP languages such as Java, JS (and languages based off like TS), and C#. But I do use other languages (ie Rust & C++) and am willing to learn more! This website (for example) was made using Astro and TypeScript! (which I learnt specifically for this)
Clearing up my name
One of, if not the most odd thing about my user name is the amount of
ways it's been misspronouced, some of which I wonder how people can even think
of! On my checklist so far is "cool guy", "cool G I" (pronounce G & I), "koo
gee", and many more (which is helerous imo).
So, you might be wondering how to pronounce it?
Well, it's as simple as thinking of the word "corgi" (like the dog
), but replacing the "cor" section
with "cool", and keeping the "gi" section pronounced the same.
Still confused? Well, just pronounce /kuːl+ɡi/ :).
Just kidding, you can just listen to espeak reading it out for you:
