Haxurn
From a live CTF bot to a portfolio site, Haxurn turns cybersecurity experiments into shipped software and shares the links along the way.

Samson Tesfaye’s Haxurn documents a fast-moving builder’s mix of CTF projects, web development, open-source contributions, and useful learning resources. The channel launched Haxurn - Core with a Telegram bot, backend API, and web admin panel, then followed it with the Haxurn portfolio site. Between launches, Samson shares hands-on resources for Next.js, cryptography, binary exploitation, Python, and Linux.
The stack is full-stack and TypeScript-heavy: a pnpm monorepo, Telegraf for the Telegram bot, Hono for the backend API, Next.js and Tailwind for the admin panel, plus PostgreSQL and Drizzle ORM. The channel pairs original builds with curated learning paths covering Next.js, cryptography, and binary exploitation.
- The channel has 60 posts collected so far.
- Its longest posting streak reached 7 weeks.

The Neon CTF Launch
April started with a 9:00 PM online challenge, followed by a completed challenge code and a short delay while the leaderboard and flag-submission pieces were assembled. Haxurn - Core then arrived as a TypeScript monorepo, with its CTF bot going live and its first blood claimed soon after.
