Start About me
Hi, my name is Yichuan Shen,
I’m a Chinese student, studying mathematics in Heidelberg, Germany and this is the place where I put most of my work, hoping it will somehow change the world.
I develop some small, handy, beautiful software for everyday Windows use, create gorgeous, simple, standards-compliant websites as best as I can, write about problems and ideas I come across, sometimes including mathematics, and compose classical music.
Anyway, if you want to contact me, feel free to do so! I’d be very happy even if you just say hi. :)
