Time doesn't have to be a circle.

A collection of alternative clocks that challenge how we visualize time. Some are practical, some aren't, but they all toy with convention.

Now everyone can have a cool profile pic like me

Add recursion to your photos! Simply draw a "hole" around an object or region and watch your photo fold in on itself, infinitely. All processing happens locally via WebGL shaders, nothing leaves your browser.

A physical collection, rendered in physics.

Cataloguing my father's coin collection in 3D, built from Numista data and assets. Browse by country, inspect coins in a showcase, or watch a set tumble into a pile.

Bring the receipts to your next argument.

A household chore tracker with a bit of gamification. Log who did what, when, and with how much effort. Each finished task earns XP and drops down a queue that ranks chores by urgency. Track your XP over time.

Putting memories on the map

I've been known to indulge in retrospection and melancholy from time to time. I like to keep track of where I've been and look back.

TUI aesthetics and real-time

Just another todo app. This one mimics a terminal interface and is collaborative in real-time. Everything over WebSockets, even auth.

System monitor on the web

A system monitor that reads metrics with Rust and renders them on HTML canvas. CPU, memory, disk, network, all updating in real-time with a persistent window so that the charts are populated on first load. This one uses simple polling instead of WebSockets or SSEs though.

It outgrew its own case.

15+ services on hardware I own, behind a reverse proxy. Email, photos, code, media, dashboards, personal projects. A repurposed gaming desktop that ran out of room in two different ways: no free space left on its disks and no free bays left inside the case. Shown here mid-upgrade. Don't worry about the cables, they don't look like this now :)
