Hakan Candar

I am a Software Engineer obsessed with compilers, kernels, computer architecture, and emulation. I graduated with a B.Sc. in Computer Engineering from Yeditepe University in 2026.

I use a variety of tools and languages, but my frequent pick for low-level hobby projects is C99 and GCC. I also write C#/.NET heavily at work, and I appreciate similar managed runtimes like the JVM.

I am fascinated by OS internals, and I am currently porting GNU Mach to RISC-V 64-bits. I have also tinkered with Linux and NetBSD source before, mostly for small stuff like writing a toy device driver.
