a mix of client work, personal experiments, and solutions to problems i've encountered along the way. dive in and see if any of it resonates with what you're working on
built with
areas i've explored
most of these started when something annoyed me enough to fix it. i don't build things to impress anyone: i build them because they solve a real problem i was having.
simple solutions over complicated ones. if i can't explain what it does in one sentence, it's probably trying to do too much.
every project here either saves me time, makes something easier, or fixes something that was broken. that's pretty much my only criteria.
i pick tools based on what gets the job done, not what's trendy. sometimes that's react, sometimes it's vanilla javascript, sometimes it's python. whatever works best for the problem.
