Free quiz-based certificates with QR-verifiable PDFs and a public registry repo. A small obsession made functional: verification as a default, not a paywall.
Lab — honest experiments
Where range lives and hype doesn't. Every tile says its real status — skeleton means skeleton — and links to source so you can audit the difference between what the README brags and what the code does. One-evening projects stay here until they earn a case study; that's the promotion system, and it's strict.
Detects contradictions between a product's website, pricing, docs and API behavior. Deterministic diffing first; AI only explains. Landing + auth flow live; engine honestly unbuilt.
Offline-first notification routing: decide what interrupts you, and be able to prove why. Built in one evening as a full README package — the badge claims are mine to defend, so the source is the receipt. Rebuild with xr-grade CI is on the list.
Cinematic mission-control weather app on WebGL Earth, built entirely on free open data. Grew out of a job-assessment submission and got rebuilt properly.
An interactive fiction game — prose, ambient audio, JSON-defined souls. Written, not generated. Proof that the runtime needs a human side.
Daily AI-generated internet-culture quiz with leaderboard and share cards. The engineering bit: Groq generates the questions, a curated fallback bank guarantees the app never breaks on an API outage.
An enterprise standup generator that produces the illusion of progress. Deliberately contains no AI — that's the joke. Dev.to April Fools entry; the writing is all mine, the scaffold was bot-drafted, which the repo history happily shows.
Anonymous peer-support chat: ephemeral by design, no persisted logs, and a crisis-resources disclaimer before anything else. Right instincts for a build I'd now harden differently.
Role-specific portfolio project ideas from a one-line goal, with a mind-map roadmap viewer. Built in a day for job-hunting freelancers, myself included.
