Selected projects.
On the record.
Selected work from 2021 to 2026, from fintech infrastructure to consumer apps.
Tools we built and gave away.
Some of what we make is useful far beyond one project, so we publish it free for anyone to use. Here’s what each one does, in plain English.
Pulsar
// in plain words
Sends fixes to a phone app in seconds. Normally a small bug means submitting a new version to the app store and waiting days. Pulsar pushes the update straight to everyone’s phone instead.
View on GitHubreact-native-live-activity
// in plain words
Lets an app show a live, updating card right on your phone’s lock screen, so you don’t have to keep opening the app. For example, a delivery tracker, a ride on its way, or a live match score.
View on GitHubBanshell
// in plain words
Turns your laptop into its own alarm. Set it, and if someone lifts or moves it, it screams at full volume until you type your code, so a grab-and-run thief doesn’t get far.
View on GitHubrepo-sync
// in plain words
A tiny menu-bar helper that quietly keeps all your project folders up to date every day, so the work on your computer is never out of sync with the team.
View on GitHubmailbox
// in plain words
A complete email inbox your team runs on its own domain. Read, write, search and share mail from the browser. The messages live on your own infrastructure instead of someone else’s.
View on GitHubperch
// in plain words
Gives every program a developer runs its own tidy, named window, so starting and restarting things is one clean command instead of a screen full of clutter.

We open-source the small tools that make our own work faster. New ones land as we build them. Follow along on GitHub.
