I write code. Then I refactor it. Then I refactor it again because “future me deserves better.”

I’m a software engineer who’s been around long enough to have strong opinions about semicolons, CI pipelines, and naming things (the hardest problem, obviously).

⚡ Clean, scalable web apps
🛠️ Developer tools that remove friction
🌍 Small side projects that scratch a random itch
🤖 Automations that save 5 minutes a day (worth it)

If something can be optimized, scripted, or simplified… I’ll probably try.

You’ll find here:

• TypeScript experiments
• Browser extensions
• Utility projects
• Things I built because “why doesn’t this exist already?”

Some projects are serious. Some are just me having fun. All of them taught me something.

• 🏅 olympics-calendar — Olympic & Paralympic calendars you can subscribe to, now covering Milano-Cortina 2026 (live here)
• 🃏 estim8 — real-time planning poker for agile teams, rebuilt with Next.js + WebSockets, now with T-shirt sizing and tests before every deploy
• 🎄 AoC — every Advent of Code since 2015 in TypeScript, warming up for December
• 🔤 avatar-generator — generates every 1–3 letter initials avatar, because why not all 18,000 of them
• 🗺️ geoguessr-timer — Chrome/Firefox extension adding in-game timers to GeoGuessr

Lately I've been pairing with Claude Code on a lot of the small, self-hosted tools that run my home and my week. Me on ideas and reviews, Claude on the typing:

• ⏰ cronos: a tiny Node.js scheduler with a web dashboard that runs my automations: Dependabot auto-merges, TLS certificate expiry alerts, transport card reminders
• 🃏 estim8: T-shirt sizing, a test suite run before every deploy, and a round of bug fixes (zero votes, server crashes, player sync)
• 📹 Home CCTV: watch my cameras live in the browser, with go2rtc turning RTSP into low-latency WebSocket streams
• 🎁 Wishlist: a gift list built from a text file of product links, where guests can reserve a gift
• 📚 Mes devoirs: a homework practice app with English vocabulary drills
• 🛒 Grocery receipts: a Playwright scraper that downloads supermarket invoices and charts the price history of everything I buy
• 💶 Budget: my personal finance app, now with bank imports and Docker healthchecks
• 🔒 apache-certbot: an Apache reverse proxy in Docker with automatic Let's Encrypt certificates

Turns out "automate the boring stuff" gets a lot faster when someone else writes the boilerplate.

TypeScript · JavaScript · Node.js · React · Next.js · WebSockets · Docker · AWS · CI/CD · Chrome Extensions · Whatever solves the problem without overengineering it

• Keep it simple.
• Make it readable.
• Automate the boring stuff.
• Ship.
• Improve.
• Repeat.

• ✈️ After living in Ireland 🇮🇪 for several years, I’m happily coding back in France 🇫🇷.
• ☕ Coffee fuel and well-timed commits keep me going.
• 🛠️ I enjoy building small utilities and extensions that make everyday workflows smoother.

If you’re into clean code, smart tooling, or just nerding out about architecture — welcome 👋
