IT & Linux
Systems, administration, infrastructure, security and the reliable operation of environments that need to remain understandable over time.
Welcome
Robin Görlach
Technology, projects and topics that have stayed with me over time.
This site brings together work, notes and reflections from IT, Linux, administration, programming, electronics, databases, data analysis and a few other fields.
There are also topics that are not directly technical, but have accompanied me over the years as well.
Quite a bit has accumulated here — perhaps some of it will be useful or interesting, for others as well as for myself.
Focus: Linux, system administration & security, software development, databases, architecture & automation
What this is about
The main focus is on IT, Linux, administration, programming, electronics, databases, data analysis and related technical topics. Alongside that, there are also areas shaped more by everyday life, practical curiosity or a longer interest in particular questions. Not everything belongs in the same drawer, but that is often exactly what makes such collections useful.
Software & Programming
Examples, ideas and projects around development, architecture, tools, data and the effort to build things in a way that stays maintainable.
Electronics & Technology
Hardware, electronics and technical contexts that have been with me for a long time and keep meeting software in interesting ways.
Everyday practice & other topics
Over time there is also room for other subjects such as travel, cooking or plants — things that are not separate from technology, but simply part of life as well.
Where some of it comes from
Much of this site did not emerge all at once, but accumulated over time. Some of it comes from projects, some from professional contexts, and some simply from curiosity, practical need or the wish to understand things better.
Over the years that has led not only to work and technical notes, but also to tools, reflections and topics I keep returning to.
A few entry points
Some visitors arrive through technical interests, others through projects, notes or practical questions. So there are different ways into the site depending on what you are looking for or what catches your attention first.
Projects
A selection of work, ideas and longer-running efforts that have stayed with me over time.
A selection starts here.
Notes
Technical hints, smaller write-ups and things that are often easier to find here later than through a search engine.
Some of it is collected here.
Topics
An ordered overview of the areas that have gathered here over time — from IT and electronics to travel and food.
The overview begins here.
Links
References, useful finds, technical notes and older collections that still remain helpful.
The link collection continues here.
And otherwise
This site is not a finished project, but more of a collection that keeps growing over time. Some sections are already quite full, others are still at the beginning or waiting to be written out properly. Anyone browsing here will therefore find not only finished things, but also traces of work still in progress.
