The work

Four things I built and still run. Each one has a case study covering what it does, the decision that was actually hard, and what it cost.

  2. The component library this site is built out of, with exactly one real customer: me. Eight apps, one substrate, published to npm and versioned like the dependency it is, which turns out to be a different engineering problem than shipping one to strangers.

  4. MegaSquad

    Private

    Multi-sport pick’ems for your friend group. Thirteen leagues across five sports, picks that auto-lock at tip-off, and standings that settle the trash talk. I built the front end; my brother built the API.
