Ollie Young, up to 2026

Hello, I'm Ollie Young. Since a young age, I've allways been intested in coding, electronics, computers, engernerring, and maths.


This is my collection of projects and achivements I've done so far.

Sorry for the atrosious spelling, it's not my strong suit...

General


Throughout all my school years, I was allways the computer kid. When there was a computer problem, it was "Ollie!". I think my interest started when I was quite young, and allways had been intrested in logical systems. When I started to learn about the ins and outs of a computer, I was fasinated. With my Dad as a IT person, it was a catalyst for my curiosity and creativity for computers to grow.

I started with scratch, which you can find here:

My scratch acount

It was fun making projects, they slowly got more advanced and I was ready to move on.

I familiarised myself with HTML when I was about 11, and I coded simple websites.

It was around then I discoverd my love for electronics, as my school had a company show top tech students how to use Arduinos to control LEDs, servos, screens, etc.

I got more interested, buying ESP32s, ESP8266, Nanos, and by the time I was 14 (When I'm writing this) started more advanced projects.

That's when I brought my custom domain, olzu.online. Olzu is my nickname you see, and I use it everywhere.



Github projects


32 bit C kernel to ISO

In 2025, when I was 13, I made this low level script which turns 32 bit protected mode C kernel file into a iso file using GRUB. In this example, I made a fully functional tree chopping game, which I coded myself. When you run this script, it compiles the file, links it, then builds it with GRUB. I made a collection of code for this, and also a small collection of scripts in one ISO file (I called it OllieISO), which you can see of the next slide.


Electrical engernering


Continuing on with my Norcom story, we had an introductory session where we learned about electricity and breadboards.

I instantly took aliking to it, learning about resisters, volts and amps, and the programming aspect of it, which was my favrioute.

After being intoduced to it all, that christmas I got a Arduino uno starter kit I spet hours tinkering with. Learning the syntax, buying aliexpress modules, it was a whole new world.

By the time I was 14, (Which is when I wrote this) I had much knowlange on the subject and was designing PCBs and making actually practical projects.


While this is a simpler project, I like it as it dosn't look like there's anything special about this, untill you switch it on:
