More work

More things
I’ve made.

Software, website studies, and questions still taking shape. Each has its own place and its own stage.

In development

Early work, with no public demo yet. These entries describe the direction rather than a released feature set.

Spessartine

Developer tool / In development

A Python diagnostic for understanding why a function behaves differently when moved from serial execution into worker processes or interpreters.

The current work is an experimental diagnostic spike, with no public release.

Antilibrary Builder

Application / In development

An AI-assisted application for building your own antilibrary—a collection shaped by what you want to explore and understand.

My personal antilibrary is the collection I browse here. Builder is a separate application intended to help other people make their own.

Household Administrator

Application / In development

A household application being developed to bring everyday obligations, plans, and reference information together.

The design puts dates, permissions, and actions under explicit application control, with AI behind a separate adapter. The application structure is underway; several components are still unwired.

The public landing page presents this project as Daybook. It describes the direction; there is no download or public app yet.

Diamond Dog

Delegated work / Early experiment

An operating environment in development for giving software a specific job, clear limits, and a record of what happened.

The public landing page describes the design and an illustrative scenario. A first experiment is underway; nothing has shipped yet.

Emerald City

Personal application / In development

A personal investment strategy app.

HTML · CSS · Node.js · SVG / Published studio website

Vespa Law

Visit Vespa Law: a website concept with navy typography, the headline Your next move, well advised, and a watercolor New York streetscape.
HTML · CSS · JavaScript / Fictional law-firm concept

A fictional professional-services website concept. An exercise in clear language, navigation, and a practical next step for someone seeking counsel.

Abandoned projects

Projects I stopped before they became finalized products. These records preserve the designs, prototypes, and decisions behind them.

iYosi

iYosi’s archived landing design: Find the place. Check the status, with an illustrative Metro Manila neighborhood and sample evidence card.
SwiftUI · Kotlin · Jetpack Compose · FastAPI · PostGIS / Abandoned · Never finalized as a product

A mobile-guide project that reached working prototype apps before I stopped development. The retained landing design is illustrative.

StatBatt

StatBatt’s archived landing preview with an emerald battery sculpture and an illustrative menu-bar panel. Open the project record.
Swift · SwiftUI · SQLite / Abandoned · Never finalized as a product

A macOS battery-app project that reached a working prototype before I stopped development. The record covers the build and why I stopped.

The landing page’s secure connection is being restored.

Pettr Health

Pettr Health’s retained storefront preview with sample pet-supplement packaging and a notice that products and copy are placeholders and checkout is not connected.
HTML · CSS · JavaScript · SVG / Abandoned · Storefront preview

A pet-supplement storefront concept I stopped because of regulatory hurdles, advertising constraints, and warehousing costs. The retained preview uses sample content and an unconnected checkout.
