Hi, I'm Zulfian 👋

Python GTK App Dev | Creator of Jollpi Text Editor | Architect of MUN-AI | Linux Enthusiast | Full Stack Laravel

I’m a full-stack developer currently working at a Civil Registration Office, where I serve as a Database Administrator. While the role isn’t always technical, I’ve developed and maintained internal Laravel + MySQL applications to support various administrative workflows.

Earlier, I spent some time in the banking sector — not in a tech position, but the experience strengthened my communication, teamwork, and problem-solving mindset.

Back in university, I spent countless hours exploring Linux and building desktop tools with Python. I learned Linux from thick Slackware PDFs, experimented with Mandriva, Debian, and Backtrack on a modest 2 GB RAM laptop, and built a Python + GTK text editor called Jollpi as my final project. That experience shaped how I think about software: practical, efficient, and transparent. I’ve been a Linux (Manjaro) user ever since.

Today, I’m rebuilding Jollpi Text Editor from the ground up using Python 3, GTK 4, and GtkSourceView 5, keeping the same lightweight and native spirit but with a modern foundation.

Alongside that, I’m developing MUN-AI (Machine Understanding for Neutralization) — an offline AI orchestration proof-of-concept using Ollama with a Python GTK 4 UI, powered by Pandas, Matplotlib, and Seaborn. Unlike typical monolithic AI apps, MUN-AI follows a modular architecture: the model runs separately in a Podman container, while the UI performs analysis locally. This approach keeps the process transparent, verifiable, and flexible — and opens possibilities beyond data science, such as edge AI or distributed autonomous systems.

🚀 Currently expanding my skills and open to exploring new opportunities where I can contribute and grow further.

📈 Recent Projects

• MUN-AI (Machine Understanding for Neutralization)
  A proof-of-concept for offline AI orchestration using Ollama and a Python GTK 4 UI. It integrates Pandas, Matplotlib, and Seaborn for data analysis, featuring a modular architecture where the model runs in a Podman container while analytics execute locally — enabling transparency, flexibility, and efficiency for edge or research environments.
• Jollpi 3.0
  A modern rebuild of my old college project — a native Python + GTK 4 text editor using GtkSourceView 5. Designed for simplicity and responsiveness, with async I/O, per-tab file monitoring, and a lightweight UI, modern GTK interface.
• Birth Registration System (Web & Desktop version)
  A web-based application for digital birth registration system designed for used by health facilities and civil registration offices. Built with Laravel and MySQL. A desktop version (Electron-based) was also explored as an alternative deployment option.
• Marriage Registration Information System
  A web-based application for digital marriage registration, designed for used by place of worship and civil registration offices. Built with Laravel and MySQL.
• Jollpi
  Jollpi is a lightweight, tab-based text editor built with Python + GTK 2 + GtkSourceView2 for Linux Desktop, originally developed as my final college project.
