Who I Am

I'm Moaaz Yahia Zakaria — a Full-Stack & Systems Engineer who builds across the entire software stack. I create developer tools, HTTP frameworks, encrypted databases, programming language compilers, and embedded C++ systems.

Everything I build follows a simple principle: zero dependencies, maximum performance, no compromises.

What Drives Me

I'm fascinated by the fundamentals — how a single clock cycle on an AVR chip, how a radix trie routes HTTP requests in C++, how AES-256-GCM encrypts a document before it leaves the process. I build tools that other developers actually want to use: fast, minimal, well-documented, and portable.

The Work

Across my projects I've:

  • Built Velociradix — a Node.js HTTP framework powered by a C++17 native engine with kqueue/epoll workers and a custom HTTP parser
  • Created FLASH — a zero-knowledge encrypted document database engine with HNSW vector search, AI-native RAG, and ORE range tokens
  • Developed JPROT — a portfolio site generator that serves Markdown directly with zero build steps, SSR, and SPA navigation
  • Written CronFlex — a zero-dependency task queue, cron scheduler, and rate limiter with a live monitoring dashboard
  • Shipped AeroCI — a local digital twin for GitHub Actions that simulates CI pipelines in milliseconds without burning remote quota
  • Built VelociForge — a virtualized package engine with 0.70ms ephemeral startup and SBOM generation
  • Created Codinam — a custom programming language with a C++ compiler, standard library, and VS Code extension
  • Engineered MicroTaskX — a high-performance micro-RTOS for Arduino with CPU profiling, power management, and compile-time task configuration
  • Developed FlareDom — a C++ UI framework that builds responsive web dashboards on ESP8266/ESP32 without HTML files or SPIFFS
  • Built Ultra1602Ultimate — a flicker-free LCD 1602 library with async text slots, progress bars, and direct port manipulation

My Stack

Frontend: React, Next.js, Tailwind CSS, HTML5/CSS3, JavaScript, TypeScript Backend: Node.js, Express, FastAPI, REST APIs, JWT authentication, rate limiting Systems: C++17, C, embedded firmware, real-time scheduling, PWM/audio synthesis Databases: JSON file persistence, encrypted document stores, blind indexes, vector search DevOps: GitHub Actions, VitePress, npm publishing, GitHub Pages, Vercel

The Philosophy

I believe in building software that respects the user's machine. Every dependency is a choice I evaluate. Every byte is a resource I respect. Every line of C++ is verified against real hardware. That's how I approach every project.

Let's build something remarkable — get in touch.
