Programming is just a tool โ€” give me the problem statement and I'll solve it.


Open Source Projects

  • ๐Ÿงช BYOT โ€” Bring Your Own Tests Go ยท Docker ยท PostgreSQL ยท MinIO
    Production monitoring that runs your existing Playwright/k6/custom test binaries on a schedule inside ephemeral containers. Catches what CI never sees โ€” third-party outages, cert expiry, API drift. Self-hostable, docker compose up and done.

  • ๐Ÿ•ธ๏ธ ArchHelix Go ยท TypeScript ยท React
    Drop any codebase in, get an interactive dependency graph out. Local Go backend + React UI. Originally cloud-hosted; rebuilt engine locally after hitting AWS costs. Ships as a single binary via install.sh.

  • ๐Ÿ—„๏ธ dbgraph Go ยท CLI
    Simulate schema changes before you apply them. Visualises cascading impact across tables, foreign keys, and indexes โ€” on any database. Zero config, 10-second setup, MIT licensed.

  • ๐Ÿ“– Central Swagger Repository HTML ยท CI/CD ยท OpenAPI
    Centralised hub for microservices API documentation โ€” real-time sync across services, lightning-fast search, developer-first dark mode UI. Each microservice pushes its Swagger spec via CI/CD; one unified interface serves it all. Live demo โ†’

  • ๐Ÿ“ฆ Github2s.com (archived) Python ยท AWS ยท React ยท ReactFlow
    Real-time dependency graph across 10M+ GitHub repos with an integrated code editor. Hit 1,000+ users before AWS costs killed it. The core insight lives on in ArchHelix.


Things I Care About

  • ๐Ÿšš Self-hosting โ€” Kubernetes on bare metal, no SaaS subscriptions, no vendor lock-in
  • ๐Ÿค– AI Engineering โ€” LLM fine-tuning, RAG, MCP servers, agents that replace real workflows
  • โšก Performance โ€” If something runs slow, I want to know exactly why
  • ๐Ÿ”ง Developer tooling โ€” I build the tools I wish existed
