Bulletyn sends customized daily email digests. You can add content from sources like Reddit, Hacker News, and RSS. I made it for myself, so I would stop spending so much time on Reddit, and it worked...mostly. It's made with Django and htmx.

I made Hacker Yardage to generate yardage books for any golf course using publicly-available data on OpenStreetMap. The data cleaning, image processing, and distance measurement is all done in Python.

Chekkin helps teams track and improve their happiness and engagement. It's designed to be simpler and more transparent than existing employee engagement tools. I built the entire back-end and front-end myself using Django, Bootstrap, and jQuery.

Houdini was a Mac OS X application that allowed the user to easily manipulate "hidden files" typically reserved for system use. I wrote it when I was in high school and needed to delete some hidden files from a USB drive. It was featured on Lifehacker in 2008 and received over 350,000 total downloads on MacUpdate. (You can also open up a new Finder window and use the keyboard shortcut Command + Shift + .  to see hidden files.)

I built this website myself from scratch to learn HTML and CSS. It's gone through many iterations as my skills have grown. My favorite feature from the past is the beard slider.

Semiform.ai let you replace your forms with custom AI agents. It used OpenAI, Django, and htmx.

An older version of weejur was a micro-blog powered by your email account — just send an email and watch it show up as a post on your site. I built and designed it myself with Django and vanilla JS.
