The Full Story
More than just code. Here's who I really am.
Ahmad Afan Shobari
Web Dev Beginner
Hi, I'm Afan.
I'm not just a coder; I'm a student at PPQIT Al-Mahir, trying to balance memorizing the Quran and building the future web. It sounds wild, right? But that's exactly what makes my journey unique.
I started programming about 1.5 years ago, completely from scratch. No fancy bootcamp, no CS degree (yet!). Just pure curiosity and a lot of YouTube tutorials. My first "Hello World" in JavaScript felt like magic, and I've been chasing that feeling ever since.
My goal? To build cool 3D web experiences that make people go "whoa." I believe technology can be beautiful and meaningful at the same time. I'm on this journey to prove that you don't need to start early or be a genius -- you just need to start.
"The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is now."

Always Learning
Every day is a chance to learn something new. I never stop being curious.
Building in Public
I share my progress and mistakes. That's how we grow together.
Balance
Code and faith go hand in hand for me. Both require discipline and patience.
Persistence
Bugs don't scare me (anymore). I'll debug until 2 AM if I have to.
Certificates & Milestones
Proof of the grind. Every certificate tells a story of late nights and breakthroughs.
