Doodles-as-A-Service Repo

👋 Aloha, this is where you can grab most of my tech doodles and sketchnotes.

I have been posting my tech doodles on Twitter and Microsoft open-source projects. I am repeatedly asked where to get the original images, especially from people who saw some of my works out of context on some social media, so I decided to put them all together on one GitHub repo.

Here are some of the latest digitally created hand-drawn doodles, as well as photos of analog ones.

All my doodles are under Creative a Commons license, so please share with attributions. And I definitely don't want you to NFT them without my permission (and I won't permit you because you don't own them. They are open-sourced to be freely available for educational purpose only!)

Enjoy 🌺

HTTP Status Cats 🐱

This is one of my first personal projects to make technology into cats. Although this is not doodling, I thought it was worth mentioning here!

All HTTP Cats are now hosted at HTTP.cat because the domain name is awesome.

All images (except a few) are originally created by me a decade ago! Read the story on Know Your Meme

Slack API Zine

/slack

└── 📁slack  
    └── 📄...

These are something I did while working at Slack. I created the zine (as physical printed books) to be distributed at Slack-sponsored events and conferences but never got fully approved. The global pandemic forced us to give up all in-person events anyway.
