Nook
Founder & Software Engineer · Jun 2026 – now
A calm focus app that gets you started. One tap, and you're in. No streaks, no badges, no slot-machine brain.
About Me
I'm Adam, a 16-year-old student from Morocco passionate about robotics, computer science, and building technology that helps people learn and grow. I've competed in robotics competitions, explored competitive programming, and I'm building Nook, a platform that makes deep work and studying more intentional.
When I'm not coding, I'm probably training for maths olympiads.
