Projects

This page lists some of my projects. For the complete list, see my codeberg profile (the extended archive including older and mostly abandoned repos is on GitHub). This list prioritises projects that are still active. Dead projects only get listed if they had some special value.

CLI utils

umbra - a set of ✨ magic ✨ CLI tools

umbra initially came about because I wanted to automate away some of the actions I kept repeating, and eventually expanded further into other CLI utilities, largely to replace tools that have turned into AI slop. This is in all likelihood the single non-library project I rely the most on to work more efficiently.

kitsune - CLI/GUI hybrid automation app

Umbra has been really good to me, especially at work - but it's still very lacking in task execution. Kitsune is a CLI/GUI app that's currently mostly a terminal emulator with automation features. I plan to expand it with some non-GUI features in the future.

Kitsune is a combination of a few projects I have been wanting to do for a while; a test reporter (that I abandoned because there aren't any good TUI libraries in C++), an automatable terminal pipeline thing (partly covered by zellij (note: partly AI slop) at this time).

Libraries

stc - a C++ utility library

stc is a small utility/compat library that adds some things C++ does not have, but that isn't worth a whole dedicated library. It mostly consists of standalone headers, though some headers depend on each other. Very much inspired by stb in terms of structure.

moonbeam - a Linux-only Lua utility library

moonbeam is a utility library for accessing system resources, JSON, and eventually other stuff. This library exists because I needed to do some advanced scripting to get a non-browser integration with my password manager without leaving my terminal, and didn't want to do all that in bash.

magpie and raven - a C++-based server library and socket library

magpie is a C++-based server library, inspired in name by Crow. It powers some of my projects that require HTTP servers.

Magpie was initially based on asio, a shit socket library that caused memory leaks. After lots of time fighting asio, I made raven, an HTTP-specific socket library. Magpie uses raven for network connectivity, and in spite of being made to be a bare minimum library, has worked better and more reliably than asio.

alui.cpp - an (unfinished) GUI library for allegro

alui is a UI library for allegro, a fantastic graphics library. It hasn't received all the development it deserves, and is far from finished (it's only barely usable as-is, and only has a small subset of features). I plan to do a large refactor at some point.

Frameworks

amethyst - a small zsh config distribution

amethyst is a small config distribution that came about because ohmyzsh decided AI slop machines were a good idea, which forced me to refactor my config. Rather than bundling it all in my zshrc, I separated it out into a new project. It includes some sane standards, and a bare minimum package installer^[1]

Games

nyaa

nyaa is an undefined, currently unplayable 2% of a plan for what will eventually be a game that'll involve dungeon crawling and some undefined open world elements. I wanted to make a game, but games are fucking hard, okay? :p

Personal projects

hazel

Hazel is a small C++-based server that I use for various stuff I'd like to have, and that requires a server, but doesn't warrant its own standalone server. Currently only serves as a way to port RSS notifications from Miniflux to discord.

Hazel was initially based on Crow, but later moved to magpie, my own HTTP server library.

Obsidian plugins

WebDAV sync

WebDAV sync is a small obsidian plugin for syncing vaults to WebDAV.

Utilities

lspinstaller

lspinstaller is a utility script for installing various LSPs. It largely exists because different distros support different LSPs, and require the rest to be downloaded in other exotic ways. That's also before accounting for the LSPs that are installed via pip or npm. Also largely came about because clangd in ubuntu's repos was out of date, and I needed a newer version.

Web

violet - a C++-based static site generator

violet came about because of the AI-sloppification of most other static site generators that used to be worth using. It's also used to generate this site, as well as a few doc sites for a few of my projects (though those just use the default theme rather than the theme I use here).

Misc

iris - a templating library

iris is a fork of inja that'll eventually get quite a few improvements over upstream. The fork is largely necessitated by violet, which as of 0.14.0 uses iris for its templates.

This entire site was generated with iris templates :3

dotfiles

Though normally not a project, my dotfiles also include an automation suite big enough that it counts as one.

The main feature of it is the makefile setup, that allows me to just type a single make command to set up a new machine. It also includes a lot of other automation, a .emacs and .zshrc with lots of utilities, and attempts to gitops most of my core setup. Certainly has its problems, but I am happy with how it has turned out.
