Projects
Software, tools, websites, and systems I am building around ownership, structure, practical use, and real problems.
What I Am Building
Bonumark Stream
A microblog and short-form publishing system for people who want their thoughts, updates, photos, and notes on a site they control instead of trapped inside social networks.
Legend of the Green Dragon: Resurrection
A modernization of the classic PHP browser RPG focused on preserving historical behavior while rebuilding the runtime, security boundaries, and test evidence for modern PHP.
Only Empowerment
Privacy-first tools for decisions, standards, rebuilding, execution, and self-directed growth, built without AI, scoring, or gamification.
GitHub
I build self-hosted publishing tools, WordPress plugins, themes, and open-source modernization projects focused on ownership and practical use.
