the smith behind it
I make developer tools in the open — with fifteen years of large, security-critical systems underneath.
A tall-stack ecosystem of robust, beautiful components for your next Laravel project — SAML 2.0, data tables, roles & permissions, and more.
A local-first desktop API client. Test REST, WebSocket, and MCP endpoints — sync collections over Git, no cloud accounts required.
Fifteen years inside a large company, focused on cybersecurity — today leading the development & automation team of its cybersecurity division. It's the work nobody sees: the systems that decide who gets in, measured in decades, not sprints. All of it one machine; these are the parts.
A commission, an idea, or just to talk shop — the forge is open.
