Hey, I'm Aldy.
I build interfaces for products people use every day. Ruangguru, Schoters, Recharge, and others. Now at Pintu, on crypto trading.
Lately I've been building a few things on the side. Ariva is a tryout platform for CPNS and BUMN prep in Indonesia. And Meecanico is a macOS app for mechanical keyboard sounds. Typing feels sleepy when your keyboard has no sound, so I built this lol. It is live, still a work in progress, but I use it every day.
Writing:
- I Built Ariva in a Weekend. The Hard Part Was Not the Code.
- I Read the Duolingo Handbook Cover to Cover. Here Is What Actually Stuck.
- Here Is How We Keep Crypto Apps From Melting Phones.
- My Experience as a Frontend Engineer in Crypto
- I Under Engineered a Notification System. Six Months Later, I Paid for It.
- Don't Ask to Ask, Just Ask
- Your Images Are Probably Slowing Your Site Down. Here Is What I Do About It.
That's most of what I'm up to. If you want to follow along, I share what I'm learning on X, open source side projects on GitHub, and I'm always happy to chat with other builders on LinkedIn.
