Projects

I'm currently building and experimenting with a mildly alarming number of things...solving my own problems, creating additional income streams and having fun making things.

  • Flashcards: Spaced repetition app built for people who want to actually remember what they read.
  • MarketRippa: The market brief your competitors wish they'd read first.
  • The Return: A game. You wake in space. No name. No memory. Almost no oxygen.
  • Goodnights: For Australian separated parents. Know exactly how many nights your kids were with you and what it means.

Most projects start on a local Mac then move across a subdomain: quick prototype, simple UI and copy, it's now super fast with AI.

The first version is always my interpretation of problem/solution, low pressure, just enough of a home to see whether it elegantly solves a problem.

If it makes me keep coming back, keep using it, and starts looking useful beyond my own problem, it graduates to a proper domain.

The speed and how many iterations depends on whatever life is currently throwing at me or how fast I hit the limit in Codex or Claude Code.

Some projects move fast, some sit there quietly for months, brewing in my head but all of them are useful experiments, opportunity to learn.
