About
A public workspace with an editorial memory.
This site gathers projects, research, writing, study notes, and selected downloads in one place so that useful work remains readable after the immediate task is over.
Dong YaoZe
I'm a student researcher and software builder who also writes and develops open educational materials. My work crosses mathematics, AI systems, software tools, technical communication, and broader interdisciplinary study. I am an undergraduate at the Kuang Yaming Honors School of Nanjing University, where I started in 2025.
This site is the durable public index for that work: projects I build, research questions I investigate, essays and literary writing, study notes, and selected educational resources. Each page should preserve enough context to be useful after the immediate project is over, including what is finished, what is exploratory, and where the public source material can be found.
What I work on
- Research: mathematical questions, quantitative and AI-related experiments, and research notes that keep the reasoning trail visible.
- Software: tools and experiments built mainly around Python, TypeScript, C++, LaTeX, automation, and reproducible workflows.
- Writing: technical explanations alongside essays and literary work.
- Open education: unofficial textbook solutions, a translation project, course notes, and other learning materials intended to be inspectable and reusable where rights permit.
Contact and source code
GitHub is the default public contact point and the source of truth for repositories. Any direct email or social links I choose to expose publicly are kept on that profile rather than duplicated here.
How the site is organized
Six sections hold everything public: Projects, Research, Writings, Study Notes, Downloads, and this page. A secondary Education catalog records books, solution sets, and translations together with their rights status. Code and repository activity stay on GitHub; long-form context, research trails, and archives stay here. A Chinese edition of every page lives under /zh/.
About this site
Built with Eleventy from Markdown and Nunjucks, with one hand-written stylesheet, no client-side scripts, and no analytics. The source is public. Every build runs a release gate that checks text integrity, publication boundaries, internal links, and metadata before anything is deployed, and new entries are announced in the feed.
