ABOUT
Santiago Billeci.
Developer, designer, and a computer science student with a habit of turning curiosity into projects.

I like understanding how things work. Then making them better.
I work across front-end and back-end development. I’ve built and launched full-stack applications and websites, and I’m always picking up new tools so I can take an idea from start to finish.
The details matter to me. A clear interface, an interaction that feels natural, a few less steps between someone and what they came to do. That’s the kind of work I want to make.
Most of that work goes into Ascendara these days. tagoWorks is where my projects live, and where I hope to build with people who care about the same things. Open source is a big part of that.

One project led to another.
- 2015
It started with Minecraft.
Command blocks were my first introduction to programming. I liked seeing an idea turn into something that worked.
- 2018–19
Learning the building blocks.
I started learning Python, then built my first website with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
- 2021
Shipping my first application.
Spotium became my first released Python application. I spent close to a year building and improving it.
- 2023
Taking on something bigger.
Ascendara brought together everything I was learning: a desktop interface, a backend, and the work of shipping a complete product.
- 2024
Making room for collaboration.
I started tagoWorks as a place to bring projects together and work with other developers and designers.
- Now
Still building. Still learning.
Continuing to develop Ascendara, explore new tools, and make software that’s easier to use.
HAVE SOMETHING IN MIND?
Let’s build something people actually use.A website, an application, or an idea worth exploring. I read every message.
