02About

Five years in.
Here's what stuck.

Started in mobile with Flutter — one codebase, two platforms, mild despair. Ten months later I moved to Flutter-for-web. Yes, that's a thing. No, I don't want to talk about it.

Eventually found Vue and Nuxt and never looked back, partly out of love, partly because Flutter-for-web is behind me and I refuse to make eye contact. (Please stop asking about it).

These days I ship complex web apps and crypto-native flows: WalletConnect pairings that pair on the second try, MetaMask sign-in that doesn't popup, on-chain reads & writes, and a checkout flow with the lowest (highest) gas fee you can ever imagine.

Off-clock: a homelab running Jellyfin + the *arr stack + Immich, all docker-compose'd behind Tailscale — works flawlessly until it doesn't, then works again (Nothing a hard reset can't fix). Also a Claude + n8n + Obsidian pipeline that reads the internet for me, so I can spend that saved time on… more internet.

A few things I've somehow managed to ship.

Not an exhaustive list, but a few highlights. From crypto-native flows to the world's most basic todo app.

06Homelab

Self-hosted, all of it.

Jellyfin + the *arr stack for media, because subscribing to 10 million different streaming services is so fun!

Immich for every photo — I'm not paying Apple a single cent.

n8n for extra automation, so I can collect my favourite memes and watch them offline.

All docker-compose, fronted by Tailscale — no port-forwarding theatre.

07AI Workflow

Less doomscroll,
more signal.

Three tools I use to read the internet without drowning in it. They happen to work well together — but each pulls its weight on its own.

n8n
workflow automation

Self-hosted automation that schedules and routes. Pulls RSS feeds, newsletters, and pages, so I can spend more time online...offline.

Useful on its own for any repeatable task you'd otherwise do by hand.

Claude
ai assistant

Hey Claude, fix it for me. Make no mistakes.

Useful on its own as a thinking partner, code reviewer, or research assistant.

Obsidian
knowledge base

Linked everything I need to remember, because I don't even remember what I had for breakfast.

Useful on its own as a personal wiki, journal, or second brain.

Say hi! But like with text. Don't actually call me.
