SaveSync
A privacy-first bookmark manager with search by meaning. I work on every layer: query plans, row-level security, migrations, realtime sync and the mobile app. 241 pull requests merged since July, each written up like a short report. The collections page went from 13.7 s to 1.2 s, and the database got back under its free plan.

serverBound
A detective game where the crime scene is somebody’s homepage. Read an island like a crime scene, work out the threat’s rule, then prove it in a turn-based duel. Demo coming soon on Steam.

SolitaryStudio
A local-first studio for writing LitRPG serials. You write prose with wikilinked entities; it derives the stats, checks continuity, maps the story and publishes a reader site.
