Hey There! 👋 I am Salma (aka Youkii 🐈⬛)
I’m currently pursuing a Computer Engineering Bachaleor and work as a freelance XR Developer
In my free time I like tinkering with different stuff, from electronics and MCU to crafts and mechanical projects. I just like connecting different stuff together and see how it works 👩🔧
Everything you see on this website - the design, the layout, the portfolio - I built, I like to have my personal touch on my stuff ✨
Some Facts about Me 😺
- I am a visual learner that is why you will see lots of images, graphs and images in this blog to keep you (and me) hooked
- I looooove coffee ☕ (who don’t?)
- I am a cat mommy 🐈⬛ of six adorable cats
- I am a certified overthinking and perfectionist (which sometimes holds me back but I am trying to overcome that)
- You’ll always find me excited about trying new stuff, new ideas and always experimenting with something
- I enjoy explaining and teaching , from simplifying hard tech & engineering concepts to conducting workshops
My Journey in XR Development
It all started with a VR Diploma I signed up for (as part of the other many random workshops I sign for to learn new stuff)
But.. this one was different, after jumping around in many tech fields, I felt like finding The One
The idea of creating your own worlds, where the only limit is you, was just fascinating!
After finishing the VR Diploma. I continued my self-learning journy through Youtube Tutorials, Documentations and many many trial and errors (and lots of coffee to solve these errors)
I started my own mini bootcamp in my bedroom (spending around 12 hours a day) for 3 months just learning about Unity and XR, working on projects, learning advanced C#
And Got my first freelance job! and since then, I decided that I want to have a career as an XR developer
Why This Blog Exists ❓
I’ve spent countless hours (and way too many cups of coffee) figuring things out the hard way. So I figured — why not share what I’ve learned?
There are some awesome developers in the XR community whose tutorials saved me ton of time. I want to be part of helping people this way
Here’s what you’ll find 👓
- XR tutorials for all levels
- Open-source tools & plugins
- tips & tricks that will save you time, frustration and help you build better
- Project breakdowns & devlogs
- Wild experiences by mixing XR, AI, custom hardware and other random ideas
- Bilingual content - Tutorials in both English and Arabic
- just some random facts, fun ideas, and new personal experiments I’m building in public, sharing the messy process, not just the published final polished project
Want see what I’ve Built? 👀
