The Color Math Was Never the Slow Part
The first version of my image-to-Minecraft-blocks converter locked up the browser tab for long enough that I assumed something had crashed. I dropped in a photo straight off my phone, hit convert, and the page stopped…
A planet in a browser tab
Our site now has a chapter where you scroll a camera through low orbit, visiting the four places we operate from. It looks like it should weigh fifty megabytes. It ships in roughly 1.5, and it is built almost entirely…

From X/Twitter Bookmarks to a Searchable Static Site
I wanted my X bookmarks to feel like a personal archive. The saved posts lived inside one account, the useful parts were hard to search, and the workflow offered no public reading surface. This project turns that…
Scope in JavaScript
What Does Scope Mean? Scope means: where can we use a variable? Some variables work everywhere in the code. Some variables work only in one small part. Think of a House In a house, everyone can use the TV in the living…
Why I’m Building FormatForge.org as a Browser-First Data Tools Platform

Two npm worms shipped with valid provenance this year
I spent most of this year believing a green provenance check on npm meant something stronger than it does. Two incidents fixed that, and the second one changed what I build. If you haven't used it: when a package is…
Keep Streaming, Abort, and Announcements Intact When You Move a Free Model Behind Your Own Server
The useful test is not whether a free model endpoint can stream. It is whether the browser can still cancel it, retry it, and announce its state changes after you insert your own server in the middle. That question…
Build AI-Powered Workflows with Zyctra API
Build AI-Powered Workflows with Zyctra API The Problem: AI Assistants That Don't Integrate Professionals and developers face a daily challenge: juggling multiple tools, platforms, and contexts. You switch between your…
Environment Config the Clean Way
Stop Hardcoding: Start with a Config Layer Every app needs configuration. API keys, database URLs, feature flags, ports. The lazy way is to sprinkle process.env calls directly in your business logic. That works until…
Why Brotli Beats Gzip for Web Performance (And How to Test It in Your Browser)
If you're still relying solely on Gzip to compress your production JavaScript and CSS assets, you're leaving free performance on the table. Brotli (Content-Encoding: br) has become the gold standard for web compression,…

I got mass bulk banned because I wasn't able to share privacy-first dev tool alternatives so I built my own 10 free browser tools
The Problem That Annoyed Me Into Building Something I spend most of my day debugging JSON payloads, generating hashes for API integrations, and converting timestamps. Like most developers, I'd Google "json formatter…
How I Built a Client-Side Shield for AI Chatbots (Open Source)
I was burning through API tokens on off-topic chatbot queries. Every "Who are you?" = brand leak + wasted money. So I built Shield by Vouch — a zero-cost, client-side filter that blocks prompt injections and off-topic…

Abort-Forwarding Proxy for a Free Model Endpoint: Stop Losing Tokens After the User Leaves
A streaming model UI usually pauses when the user hits Cancel, but the cancel button only stops the local reader. The upstream generation can keep running unless the browser's AbortSignal travels through your server to…
How to Convert HEIC to PDF in the Browser with Vue 3 and Canvas
Converting HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container) files to PDF seems straightforward — decode the image, embed it in a PDF. But HEIC adds complexity: browser support varies, EXIF orientation handling is tricky, and…
React Email Checks Need One Source of Truth
If your signup form still stores email validation as a loose pile of booleans, that field is probably lying to your UI from time to time. I keep seeing the same combo in production React apps: isChecking, isAvailable,…

5 React interview questions I'd actually ask (and how I'd answer them)
Most "React interview questions" lists online are either trivia (define useEffect) or so advanced they're not useful below 3-4 years of experience. Here are 5 I think are actually worth knowing, with the answer I'd give…
A Working Application Isn't Necessarily a Well-Engineered Application
When I started building applications, I used to have a fairly simple definition of success: 𝐈𝐟 𝐢𝐭 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐬, 𝐢𝐭'𝐬 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠. And honestly, that mindset makes sense when you're learning. You build a feature. You run it. It…

You copy and reverse the array to find the last match. `findLast()` searches from the end directly.
Here is a pattern that shows up in almost every codebase: const lastActive = [...users].reverse().find(u => u.status === 'active'); It works. But it creates a full copy of the array, reverses that copy in place, and…

jalali-js: Persian calendar for JavaScript
You've probably been here: you want Jalali dates in the UI, but not a pile of packages, Moment plugins, and Jalali strings leaking into your API. jalali-js (currently 0.4.2) is the small toolkit I reach for in that…
What I learned about repeat-and-vote sampling for non-deterministic search results
Repeating a YouTube search query three times and keeping only results that appear in two or more of those fetches is more reliable than treating any single fetch as ground truth. The Jaccard similarity between two…
Why simplified Chinese's 干 becomes three different traditional characters (and how a converter has to guess right)
When I added a Traditional/Simplified Chinese converter to my little text-tools site, I assumed it'd be the easy one — swap a few thousand characters for their counterparts and call it done, same idea as the Unicode…

Build First. Understand What You Build. Then Use AI to Build Faster.

Biome vs ESLint + Prettier: The Rust Toolchain That's 56x Faster in 2026
In a typical TypeScript monorepo, linting alone can eat 45 seconds off every CI run, and that's before Prettier gets a turn. According to a 2026 linting comparison on dev.to, running ESLint across 10,000 files takes…
Parsing multi-gigabyte Outlook PST files in the browser
Disclosure up front: I build Mailward, a browser-based PST/OST/OLM/MBOX/EML viewer. These are the implementation notes. A PST file is not a folder of emails. It is a single-file B-tree database — Microsoft documents the…
