Projectfolio
I’ve got plenty of side projects that range from small experiments, helpful little tools, to learning aids for new languages or frameworks. Once in a while they grow into something of their own that I want to share, or at the least showcase. This list, while certainly not exhaustive, is a small showcase of those projects that I’m most proud of or get a lot of value out of daily.
Most of the projects listed here are not “finished” and many are in a state of maintenance or hibernation, but I still found the experience, lessons and ideas from them fulfilling.
Broom is a browser extension for Firefox and Chrome that lets you scrape data from a web page up into a CSV or JSON file.

Bones is a small tool for managing remote Fossil-SCM repositories, giving an interface to find as well as create new Fossil repositories that can easily be shared and collaborated on remotely.
Please Do Not Rob Fish is a small photo organization and hosting site. Born out of the need to use a joke domain rob.fish.
I started actively participating in Advent of Code in 2021 and have made a point of trying to write understandable code, rather than reach the solution the fastest.

Duckware is a QA and developers dream. It records events happening on a webpage, ranging from clicks to websocket data and network requests and allows packaging it up with timestamped screen recordings to send over to developers to help hunt bugs.
LimeJuice is my own adventure in replicating the great PocketBase using server side Swift instead of Go, and WASM as the integration language instead of Javascript.
SpiderMite-lang is a multi-pass programming language implementation that I’ve been using to explore the ideas of how to implement type-checking and pattern matching.
