The Funky Kilobytes Served

Some recent public things I've worked on that might be of interest...

The Funky Bits

A collection of small, self-contained web utilities — no build steps, no backend, no bundler. Even though each "bit" is a single HTML file, there is a surprising amount of fun & functionality to be had. Most bits start as as experiments but some end up having long-term utility.

LogBus

Get your logs on the bus, Gus, and send them to their happy place. LogBus aims to be a Swiss Army knife of system logs & events. It can be used to do the basics such as provide web analytics from common web access logs. It can also be configured & extended relatively easily to handle more custom needs such as adding clients to firewall ban lists when trying to probe or attack your system.

FotoLog

Born out of frustrations trying to share trip activity with friends & family, FotoLog is a web application designed to help curate, map, and share photographs (fotos) with others. It is not a general purpose foto backup & management application. It was built for personal use but may be useful for site management such as a parks/forestry department tracking issues that need attention. If I'd known about apps like TravelMap, WanderLog, or PolarSteps, then I probably would not have developed it. Since I did, I might as well use it.

idem.sh

A lightweight bash library for idempotent configuration management — the kind of thing you reach for when you want to manage a small server fleet without the weight of Ansible or Kubernetes. Functions cover package installation, file operations, and systemd unit management, and a dry-run mode lets you audit before applying. A Javascript/Dax port (idem.ts) is also available.
