Projects

A calm, self-hosted news reader designed to surface important headlines without noise, tracking, or algorithmic manipulation.

This project pulls directly from trusted public RSS feeds and presents them in a clean, minimal interface that favors clarity over engagement tactics. No autoplay, no popups, no clickbait layouts — just headlines and summaries.

It exists as a personal alternative to ad-heavy news sites and social feeds, prioritizing privacy, speed, and focus.

Explores:

A simple food and meal-related project used for tracking ideas, notes, and experiments around eating and planning.

Rather than a recipe site, this exists as a lightweight personal system for thinking about meals, patterns, and planning without over-engineering the problem.

Used for:

• Meal ideas and notes
• Planning experiments
• Keeping things simple
