I ship open-source tools for Linux and Windows and full-stack web apps for privacy and personal data. I care about software that respects the person using it.

01About

I build software that gives people back control — faster machines, cleaner inboxes, and tools you actually own.

I'm a software developer who works across the full stack and down into the OS. That means TypeScript and Next.js for the web, C# / .NET for Windows, and Bash for the Linux tooling people install with a one-liner.

The throughline in my work is simple: software should respect its user. My open-source projects help people debloat, declutter, and take their data back — and I bring the same instinct to whatever I build. I'm looking to join a team that ships thoughtfully and cares about the craft.

Four projects that show how I think about software.

Open-source tools for Linux and Windows, plus full-stack web apps for privacy and personal data — built end-to-end and shipped to real users.

À la carchy

Pick-and-choose debloater and optimizer for Omarchy Linux — installed with a single curl one-liner.

A two-panel TUI that lets users browse preinstalled packages, install community themes, rebind Hyprland keys, and tune their system without leaving the terminal. Ships 252 themes, 69 Hyprland settings, and ASUS ROG hardware controls with safe confirmation prompts and a one-shot backup/restore.

Unsubly

Privacy-focused email management — connect your inbox, scan every subscription, and unsubscribe for real (not just filter).

Full-stack monorepo that supports Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo, AOL, Fastmail, and iCloud. Browser automation with Puppeteer actually clicks the unsubscribe buttons; rollups consolidate noise into daily digests, and an Inbox Shield blocks cold senders. Built on Next.js 14 + Prisma + Postgres in a pnpm/Turbo monorepo.

Clear Glass

Modern Windows optimization app with a sleek glass-effect UI — performance and privacy in one installer.

Native Windows desktop app for safe optimization: creates system restore points, cleans temp files, tunes services, and hardens privacy settings. Built on .NET 6 with PowerShell automation under the hood and shipped as a signed Inno Setup installer.

Home Movies

Find what to watch — and figure out the smallest set of streaming subs that actually covers your watchlist.

Browse trending and top-rated titles, view cast filmographies, and track a personal watchlist across providers. The kicker is a greedy set-cover algorithm that crunches your unwatched list and recommends the minimum streaming subscriptions to cover it — surfaced as an interactive chart with provider-by-title breakdowns.

03Toolbox

The stack I actually ship with.

Each tool below earned its place on a real project — not from a tutorial. I lean on a small kit I know deeply and pick up whatever a team is using. The tech is the easy part; the system around it is what matters.

What I've been building, in order.

A short tour of recent work — what shipped, what mattered, and the decisions behind each one.

  1. Unsubly · Privacy email platform

    2026 — present
    Founder · solo build

    Building a multi-provider inbox that actually unsubscribes you from things.

    • Designed a Turbo / pnpm monorepo from scratch with separate apps for the web client and API.
    • Built browser automation on Puppeteer that clicks real unsubscribe flows across six email providers.
    • Architected the Postgres schema for senders, subscriptions, rollups, and shield rules.

  2. À la carchy · Omarchy debloater

    2025 — present
    Open-source maintainer

    A two-panel TUI that lets Linux users debloat and customize their system à la carte.

    • Running at 200–300 weekly active users with 190+ GitHub stars in roughly five months — no marketing budget.
    • Shipped a one-line curl installer, 252 community themes, and a 69-setting Hyprland configurator.
    • Maintained a strict no-dependency rule — the whole tool runs on Bash and standard Unix utilities.
    • Hosts a dedicated landing page at alacarchy.sh for first-time installs.

  3. Home Movies · Streaming optimizer

    2025 — 2026
    Solo build · full stack

    Full-stack Next.js app that figures out the smallest set of streaming subscriptions you actually need.

    • Implemented a greedy set-cover algorithm to recommend minimum-cost subscription bundles.
    • Built end-to-end test coverage with Playwright and Vitest from day one.
    • Normalized provider variants (e.g. "Netflix with Ads" → "Netflix") so analytics actually held up.

  4. Clear Glass · Windows optimization app

    2025
    Solo build · desktop

    Native Windows app for safe optimization, privacy hardening, and a sleek glass-effect UI.

    • Shipped a one-click Inno Setup installer for end-user distribution.
    • Built a WPF UI on .NET 6 with PowerShell automation orchestrated under the hood.
    • Wrote restore-point and rollback logic so optimization is reversible by default.

Let's build something worth shipping.

I'm open to full-time roles, contract work, and interesting collaborations. The fastest way to reach me is email — I read everything and reply within a day.
