About Me

I'm Voylin, a Belgian guy who moved to Japan in 2020 and became a solo developer in April 2023 from which I started mainly working on my open-source video editor. I have also released some other software already, but my video editor is still my priority. I'm also a full time stay-at-home dad and as a way to get some amount of income I'm doing YouTube on my 3 channels.
