Having built many fullstack applications and having tried many different approaches and seen the advantages and disadvantages of all of them, I have years of experience with designing, implementing, testing, and deploying a water-tight system.

PROJECTS

Mandy: Hypersonic content-management

A hypersonic, extremely lean content-management system

A hypersonic static-site generator built from the ground up to not use any external dependencies, be very light, very easy to use, and very fast. Builds with Mandy take less than 400ms.

Nuwa.nvim: Aggressive minimalism

A 200-line Neovim plugin manager

An extremely light, small, and fast Neovim plugin manager. Nuwa.nvim is only 200 lines of code long, takes a straightforward procedural approach to plugin installation, and gets out of the user's way.

Jirai: A new markup language

A compiler for a bespoke markup language

Jirai is a markup language inspired by Jirai Kei fashion from Japan. The language's syntax is not only designed around the symbols common in Jirai Kei online spaces, but a compiler for this language was implemented that compiles markup in Jirai to HMTL.
