Development notes and projects

Ideas in one place. Tools in another.

This site keeps general notes separate from concrete projects. Notes hold the thinking and the loose ideas. Projects hold the tools I can actually build.

How the site is split

Notes

General ideas

Notes collect broad thinking, implementation context, and design decisions.

Browse notes

Projects

Concrete tools

Projects start as ideas, then break into checklists and detailed steps until they are ready for a live site or repository link.

Latest notes

dependencies, automation, security, workflow

Automated dependency updates

Keep dependency updates automated so they stay small, safe, and manageable.

ci-cd, tools, workflow

Managed CI/CD

My personal default is to use GitHub Actions for CI/CD until a better alternative clearly earns the switch.

writing, workflow, planning

Write a lot

Write broadly first, then come back later and decide what deserves depth.

automation, architecture, workflow

Composable automation

Build automations from loose, high-level blocks that are easy to chain and change.

Latest projects

Idea knowledge-graphs, automation, workflow

Dreaming knowledge graph tools

Build a tool that dreams over a knowledge graph to merge duplicates, split overloaded ideas, and add useful connections.

Idea ai, models, evaluation, self-hosted

Local model experiments

Experiment with local or self-hosted AI models so the model stays stable and the evaluation results are easier to trust.

Idea desktop, native, electron, deployment

Desktop application experiments

Build a small desktop app to learn native development, compare it with Electron, and practice shipping software outside the browser.

Idea analytics, dashboard, metrics, search

Project metrics dashboard

Build a simple dashboard that shows the important numbers for each project at a glance.
