Projects

A list of unfinished ideas, practice and learning exercises, and small personal projects.


Simple Kanban

Simple Kanban is a super simple almost-featureless kanban board PWA. It offers three columns (To Do, In Progress, and Done), edit-in-place, drag-and-drop and automatic date stamping. Built as an exploration in Web Components. Code available on GitHub.

Time-Tracker.io

A simple app that helps keep track of time spent on a task. Offline-first PWA (Progressive Web App), local storage, built with SvelteKit. If needed, user data can be synced to another device, handled with Userbase ensuring security and privacy.

Hypedocs

A simple app to help keep track of any wins I may have on any given day. I wrote a bit about this project in a hypedocs blog post.

KBSwings

I don’t always exercise, but when I do, I use kettlebells. Read more about this project in the KBSwings blog post.

HTML/CSS Toggle

A basic toggle made with only HTML and CSS. It’s a Svelte component but the HTML/CSS can stand alone.

Responsive Tester

A simple iframe viewer to help check responsive styles. Good for blog posts maybe? Created a Web Component out of the Svelte component, source code can be found here.

Design Journal

A site created with Processwire CMF, a PHP-based content management system/framework. The goal for this is to get better at looking at the details of other sites and be able to describe what I like about them in an effort to learn more about design from others. I have abandoned this journal as I try to delve deeper into the Web Platform and focus on my understanding of the underlying principles of Web Development rather than design.

Kettlebell Swing Counting App

I started this as a Sketch exercise to work on some UI design. I liked it enough that I decided to create an actual app. It's a ReactJS app with a self-hosted headless CMS (Cockpit CMS) and Chart.js for the stats page.

Simplenotes.online

A simple vanilla JS app that lets you jot down a quick note. Just copy the link and send it to yourself or anyone else.

Congrats

A different take on the simple notes app with a little more fun. Anyone can use it, just type in some text, send the link and make someone’s day. Or at least a happy couple of minutes.

SpeedReader

A simple app using Svelte. Updated from previous version improving the reading experience and the accuracy of the calculations.

MathWorksheets

A basic app I made with my daughter to help her practice math problems. Built with Svelte.

Lotería

Fun Covid project. I challenged myself to complete this in a weekend. It can use some improvements but overall, I think it came out pretty good for just under 20 hours of work. This was created using a json store as a backend and NextJS for the front. Lotería is a Mexican game of chance similar to Bingo.

CSS Loaders

A very small (as of 2 May, 2023) collection of CSS loading animations. I will add more over time.


Sites

Some sites I've built, mostly built with Processwire CMS.
