Bulgur Cloud offers a user-friendly, self-hosted file storage and sharing platform with emphasis on hassle-free setup and maintenance. Built with modern web technologies: Rust (Actix-Web) for a robust backend and TypeScript (React, Next.js) for an intuitive interface.

Rust Embed for Web simplifies web asset management by enabling direct embedding of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript into Rust executables. This ensures deployment consistency and includes performance optimizations like pre-computed headers and compression. The companion project, Rust Embed Responder for Actix Web, is tailored to efficiently serve embedded assets with intelligent caching and content negotiation, with a focus on high-performance web delivery.

Cuttlestore provides a versatile abstraction layer for interacting with popular key-value stores like Redis and SQLite (with support for CouchDB and DynamoDB planned). This streamlines development, facilitates switching between storage backends, and promotes adaptable application design.

A TypeScript library for managing the number of concurrent asynchronous operations. It helps prevent server overload by ensuring only a set number of network requests, database queries, or other async tasks are in flight simultaneously. This library minifies under 1kb and has zero dependencies, helping minimize your bundle size.

Niche middleware for the Actix Web framework that allows HTML forms to be submitted using HTTP methods other than the standard 'GET' or 'POST'. This provides greater flexibility in designing web forms and RESTful APIs, allowing lightweight pages to interact with rich APIs.

This project simplifies domain management for dynamic IP setups. It automates DNS updates via Gandi's Live DNS feature, ensuring services remain accessible even with changing IP addresses. The solution offers both containerized (Docker) and traditional system package deployments, providing adaptability to different infrastructure environments.

• I'm currently working at Mixpanel where we're building tools to help everyone understand data and get answers. I work with alongside an amazing team using technologies like TypeScript, React, Python, Django, and more.
• On my free time, I love playing with Rust and TypeScript to build open source projects. All the big ones are listed above! These projects usually involve React or SvelteKit, Actix Web, and Docker among other technologies.
• I'm learning Svelte. It's very fun because it compiles down to simple javascript, and gracefully supports progressive enhancement.
• When I'm not programming, I am usually cooking, playing (World of Warcraft, Rimworld, Ultrakill), riding my bicycle, or spending time with my spouse and our dog.
• I graduated from The Ohio State University with an MS in Computer Science. You can find my publications online.
