How the projects come about

Born from my own needs

Every program solves a problem I had myself, and I use it every day.

Open source

GPL or MIT, source code and issue tracker on GitHub. Forks are welcome.

No account, no cloud

The programs only talk to your own devices. No tracking, no ads.

AI-assisted

I develop with AI assistance. Decisions, reviews and testing stay with me, on my own devices.
