I've spent most of my working life building software for other people's roadmaps. This site is the opposite: nothing here has a roadmap, a funding round, or a growth target. It exists because a thing annoyed me and I fixed it for myself.

What's on this site

  • Mini projects — 6 small tools, each with a page explaining what it does and what it got wrong
  • Blog — 6 essays on craft, naming, and keeping a project small
  • Photos — a rolling journal, mostly film, mostly outdoors

How I work

Small, finished, and boring on purpose. I'd rather ship one tool that does a single job well than a platform with a feature list. Most of what's here took a weekend, and the ones that took longer were usually the ones I later archived.

A tool earns its place by being the one you open when you're in a hurry.

Say hello

Questions about a project, a photo, or a piece of writing are all welcome — the fastest way to reach me is email, and I read everything that arrives.
