Open-source professional creative tools.
And the engineering knowledge behind them.
I'm building a system for making professional creative software on the desktop — open source, local-first, no telemetry, no lock-in. The first tools built on it are for photography, the work I know best.
But the tools are the proof, not the point. The system underneath — the reusable crates, and every decision of weight reasoned through in the open and written down — is the real work. Building it this way produces the thing the web is quietly losing: engineering knowledge you can trust, because a person stood behind every word of it.
All of it answers to the same small set of pillars, and all of it is early. There's more written down than there is built, and right now I'm the one building it.
