01

Electronics is usually taught slowly and assumes you already know the words. Electronica teaches one idea per reel, in under thirty seconds, for total beginners anywhere in the world — from a first blinking LED to Embedded C registers, home wiring, buying guides, myths and quizzes.

It publishes on Instagram as @iam.yourprofessor and on YouTube Shorts, with a planned course of 211 lessons in 20 series, and follower requests jump the queue.

On the phone

Designed mobile-first, so it feels native in the hand — not a shrunk-down desktop page.

There is no editing timeline. Every frame is drawn in code with Skia — kinetic type, neon circuit diagrams, animated components — and every sound is synthesised: original music, effects and a voiceover, mixed to −14 LUFS for streaming.

Each kind of reel has its own visual theme — cyan lessons, amber “Why does…?”, red-and-green Myth or Fact, violet quizzes, teal buying guides, blueprint tech stories — all sharing one brand system.

learn.pablochtech.com is generated from the same repository. Each new reel becomes a lesson page sorted into its series; a GitHub Action matches it to its YouTube Short every three hours, rebuilds the site and deploys it to Hostinger.

Around the lessons sit a hands-on component lab, a daily quiz drawn from a question bank, and a small arcade of electronics games.
