中文版：自我介绍
My name is 晨熠, and this is my online handle. My English ID is ArvelVale across the board — my blog, GitHub, everywhere under one name (I’ve used others before, but I’ve consolidated). If you see ArvelVale, that’s me.
I’m from Suqian, Jiangsu — the hometown of Liu Qiangdong and Xiang Yu. I’m someone who loves exploring and trying things. INFP, slightly introverted, but luckily I consider myself a fairly courageous person.
In my final year of high school, I felt the classes at school weren’t as good as the online courses from teachers like Li Zheng and Tao Ran, so I went home to study by myself. Only later did I realize I’d overestimated my self-discipline — my gaokao score wasn’t great. Feeling a bit ashamed and wanting to escape everyone I knew, I secretly changed my college application to somewhere far away: Chongqing. And as far as I know, no one I knew before high school ended up in the same place.
I got into Chongqing University of Science and Technology, in mechanical engineering, then transferred into Computer Science. In my first year I passed CET-4 without really preparing, and later passed CET-6 too. I’d been interested in hacking since middle and high school, so I joined the campus cybersecurity club, learned network security, played in some CTF competitions, and won a few awards.
But overall, after transferring majors I was still pretty lost — until around the end of 2024, when the release of GPT-o1 stunned me and made me realize AI in this era isn’t a passing hype but a trend. After all, the ceiling of AI could be infinite.
Then I tried building with Cursor — vibe coding — and it opened up another world for me. Back then the models were still Claude 3.5 and 3.7. The first thing I made was a “Solar System Brawl” game, with meteor storms, collision mode, speed mode, fan-shaped shockwaves, all sorts of wild ideas — and the AI just built all of them for me.
After that I wondered if I could build a complete project on my own. So I made a recipe generator: users type in whatever ingredients are left in the fridge, and get recommended recipes with a picture for every step. The idea was simple — plain HTML, CSS and JS on the front end, Python Flask on the back end. It was a first real attempt, though it ultimately failed. At the time I was still secretly afraid of things like domain names, SSL certificates, and payment integration — fears I later got over in another mini-program project. Once you truly see through something and get fluent with it, it’s hard to ever fear it again.
Later I tried Vue, React, TypeScript, Go, Node.js and other stacks — learning by building along the way. And as I went, I got more and more fluent at steering AI.
Actually I’m not only into vibe coding — I’ve also studied a bit of the I Ching with Professor Zeng Shiqiang, though not very deeply. I’m interested in traditional Chinese culture, and I love traveling, exploring places I’ve never been. Somehow I never seem to get bored in a new place — maybe because I just hadn’t explored enough before. Later I ran into communities like waytoAGI and Datawhale, plus offline hackathons, which opened up an even bigger world and planted the idea that I want to do something different — to walk a road of my own.
Hoping to make progress together with all of you!
