Projects

Products

01

Impact

A planning and installation tool for security integrators. A designer draws a site on a map or over a blueprint, places cameras, access control, alarm and network devices, wires them up and exports a PDF plan. A technician then works the same plan on a phone in the field, offline if need be.

Seat-based billing through Stripe. Plan limits and permissions are enforced in the database with row-level security, and the app is covered by Vitest and Playwright test suites.

Next.js, React, TypeScript, Supabase, Mapbox GL, Stripe, Vitest, Playwright, Vercel

Impact's plan builder: a warehouse site map with cameras, access points and switches placed and wired together
02

Music or Lose It

A fast music quiz. Listen to a 30-second preview and race to name the track before time runs out. Play solo for a place on the global leaderboard, or head-to-head against a friend.

Built with

React, Vite, Mantine, Supabase, Deezer API, Vercel

Worth noting

Real-time multiplayer over a four-digit room code. Both players see each other's picks live.

03

LinkChop

A URL shortener. Paste a long link and get a six-character short one, with an optional expiry date.

Built with

React, Vite, Mantine, Supabase, Vercel

Worth noting

Each short code is derived from a hash of the link, so the same link always gets the same code. Requests are rate-limited in the database.

Tools and hardware

04

AsmStudio

A beginner-friendly disassembler and decompiler for Windows programs. Open an .exe, pick a function, and see its assembly beside the same code as C, with a plain-English note on every line.

Windows desktop app

Built with

Python, PySide6 (Qt), Capstone, pefile, Claude API

Worth noting

The decompiler works offline. Optional AI features rewrite a function as clean C, explain it, and map what the whole program does.

05

e-Closing Export

A title company needed its own records out of a platform that offered no export. I mapped the undocumented API, pulled everything down, and built a front end to browse the local archive.

Client work

Built with

Postman, REST, JSON

Worth noting

Every record came out as JSON, along with the full document downloads.

06

Smokey

A flue temperature monitor for my wood stove. A K-type thermocouple mounted on the flue feeds a Feather S3 microcontroller, which reads the temperature and streams it to Supabase.

Hardware project, built and installed at home

Built with

Feather S3, Arduino, K-type thermocouple, Supabase

Worth noting

Readings are stored in Supabase, where configurable alerts watch for trouble such as a flue running too hot.

07

YoLink Desktop Monitor

A lightweight Windows system tray app that watches YoLink motion sensors and sends a native Windows notification when activity is detected.

Built with

Python, MQTT, YoLink API, pystray, winotify

Worth noting

Reconnects on its own after internet or API dropouts, and keeps a local log of every event.
