Interface and simulation experiment

Deepfield

A space exploration prototype operated through maps, sensors and shipboard panels. Simulation and interface development for galaxy navigation and ship systems management.

I stopped development because I did not see a sustainable path to bringing it to market. The prototype remains an experiment in interaction design, data visualization and software development.

Open-source developer tool

lockhound

A Windows CLI that identifies the processes keeping a folder locked. It uses the Windows Restart Manager API and has no package dependencies.

Run it to inspect the locks. Terminating a process is a separate, explicit action, so you can first see what is holding the folder open.

Example usage. Inspect a folder without terminating any process.

How I work

An eye for the interface

Web design was my starting point. Then came visual identities, print, backend systems and infrastructure. That background still shapes the work with designers: interfaces faithful to the mockups, in both appearance and behaviour.

Rules and automated checks

Shared decisions written down; checks automated where possible. Dependencies, module boundaries and builds are part of that work. It also saves me from having the same conversation a dozen times.

Code and collaboration

Development and debugging alongside junior and senior engineers. Regular discussions with their managers and with design, security and sales to clarify requirements and agree on changes across products.

How I use AI in development

Evaluation of Claude, Cursor and other assistants on real development tasks. Repository instructions, documentation and shared tools to help them navigate the code. Recurring mistakes are a starting point for improving that setup, alongside correcting the code.
