Hi, I’m Joyal Jose, also known as Foxtrot47.

I work mostly on backend with .NET and web. In my own time, I tinker with graphics and operating systems

Selected work

A few things I’ve worked on

Personal projects that taught me something new, sent me down a rabbit hole, or simply seemed worth trying.

All projects

A DirectX 11 engine I started because I wanted to understand what sits behind a rendered frame.

  • C++17
  • DirectX 11
  • HLSL
  • CMake

  • C#
  • WinUI 3
  • Windows App SDK

Journal

A few notes from time to time

Occasional notes about things I’m learning, building, watching, and thinking about.

Away from code

Fast cars and strange worlds

01 / Motorsport

I follow Formula 1, WEC, and WRC with more timing screens open than I need.

02 / Games

Mostly racing games and soulslikes: very different ways to spend an evening retrying the same corner.

03 / Film

Science fiction, especially the kind that takes its machines and worlds seriously.
