About Me

My name is ElAcheche Bedis, aka d4rk 5c0rp. I am a Tunisian technology enthusiast who followed a Software Engineering degree. I am a web and mobile developer.

The first time I have heard about the Tunisian community was in the UGJ 11.09 and I started following the community online and IRL since then.

Personal Linux Experience

I have first tried GNU/Linux in 2011 at UGJ 11.09, than it has become my primary operating system after two months.

As my knowledge about GNU, FLOSS and Linux have grown, I have tested many Linux distributions such as arch, mint and fedora
But currently, I am still loyal to Ubuntu as my main PC OS.

Contributions

Since I have joined Ubuntu-TN I had the chance to learn a lot from the community and especially about the community. I first started helping the community creating some designs such stickers, covers, wallpapers and, posters I also developed some ubuntu-touch projects as an ubuntu-tn developer and I am tring to give any kind of help as possible as I can to our community.

Events : Conferences, workshops, install parties and others

Most Ubuntu-TN events are listed on our Events page. You can find events details, reports, photos and blog links on that page. Our monthly report may sometimes contain further details or information.

During these events I have worked with members of Ubuntu-TN community and sometimes with members of other FLOSS communities, organizations, universities and clubs. I am very thankful to everyone who contributed to these events in any way possible.

  • - Zoueidi Naeîl, Ubuntu-tn Member, 17-03-2015.

  Bedis, aka The Artist, he is always ready to make a few mouse clicks and produce beautiful artworks. I can't imagine a Tunisian LoCo team event without a poster made by Beids and using only free software. His contribution to our community is important and I highly recommend his approval as an Ubuntu member.

  • - Nizar Kerkeni, former LoCo contact, 24-03-2015.

  Bedis is one of most active members in the ubuntu tn community. He is a great artistic sensitivity and an even greater creative curiosity. His creativity always surpasses my expectations. Everything from color scheme to logos, it always seems to be better than I imagine. It is a rare talent to combine technical knowledge with art. I'm sure that ubuntu membership will be a good recognition to let him to go ahead.
