This was an Android app I developed to accompany my school paper "Wie findet man erdähnliche Planeten?", I wrote on techniques to discover exoplanets. The app displays the number of exoplanets discovered to date and what techniques were used. The app is not on Google Play anymore, but the API from the NASA Exoplanet Archive is still pretty cool: link

This was definitely my biggest project ever. Maybe you know the feature "Hangouts" of the app Couchsurfing, it's a way to quickly find people in your area to hang out. This was supposed to be like that, but bigger. Needless to say, it was far too ambitious, but I worked a lot on it (notes).
Another far too ambitious project. This app was supposed be a bit like Yelp, but with a more social character. Actually, I don't know, I've never used Yelp. Anyway, like most projects, I put far too much time and effort into this project that could never be actually realised.
My first project that was not just an Android app. In fact, this one was all-web. I don't actually completely remember what this was supposed to be.. Some kind of chatroom, but I don't know where the novelty was supposed to be. But I did learn php doing this, and even tough that is not a pleasant journey, it does come in handy!
This app was actually pretty cool. It was functionally a clock and timer, with the time of the clock displayed verbally, as in "Quarter to nine" (see screenshots below). This feature was obviously not my idea, there were other apps that already did this. The timer was definitely cooler. Instead of just counting down, it displayed an animated Rubik's cube that solved itself in exactly the specified time. Because of the random implementation, sometimes it would accidentally be finished a few steps before the deadline and then scramble itself a bit in the next few turns only to undo them again.
There also was a widget with exactly the same style and function of "Uhr" (see app below, that's where the 2.0 stems from), still this app was very much less successful and people definitely installed the legacy app much more even after the release of this one.

I'm proud of mTool. It was by far the biggest project I ever had at that time, later surpassed by Actio. But I finished mTool! Really I only overtook mTool with ePotato in 2017, ePotato being a much, much bigger project.
mTool was a "toolbox" app. I don't know why I built it, nobody would use this app, but apparently I thought it was worth investing the time into. There's also this animation I made:

These are by far my most successful apps, especially Uhr (which is just German for "clock"), having almost 30 times the downloads of its successor app, clock 2.0. By the way, these days anything with less than a million downloads is basically "nothing"; it wasn't as extreme back then, but all of these apps are obviously very unsuccessful.
The clock app here was just the home-screen widget as in the screenshot, and Volume Controls was an app to let you Control the Volume! By the way, check out the sweet feature graphic for the clock app by clicking the icon above (you can do this for most apps here).

My first app on the Market! I didn't even have an Android phone when started building this app. It's nothing special, a home-screen widget to lock your phone. Initially it was not a free app, so I even made like 10€, approximately -6% of my complete "income" from all these projects combined (note the minus sign).

From 2009 to 2014 I was part of my school's robotics club (Shoutout to Nölti) where we built robots with Lego Mindstorms bricks. With these robots we participated in RoboCup competitions, where the robots had to drive through a small arena, following a line, driving around obsticles, etc. In this repository is my code from the German Open competitions 2010 to 2014, and the world cups 2012 in Mexico (2nd place single team competition) and 2014 in Brazil (4th place superteam competition).

In 2007, my friend Yannis (his website) and I started a company, we named it Turtle. Now, we were both in primary school back then, so please don't take this too seriously. We wanted to do all kinds of stuff. If you want, you can browse our website to see what we were up to. The website was created when turtle was already almost forgotten, to showcase our two projects, the "Operating System" and "Turtle Mobil", as well as my first two apps.
I also found this very old website that you probably shouldn't look at.
This is it. My very first project, ever. It was supposed to be some kind of game, I guess..? The instructions of what the game should be came from my sister, so that's also where the name comes from. I built this when I was nine, so don't expect too much. It doesn't work anymore, but in my memory it used to work as it was supposed to.. whatever that was. A lot of image files somehow got deleted down the road, so those are definitely missing, other than that, maybe it's fine? I don't know. Also, I don't really care.
