Write a technical book on the BGE (Blender Game Engine) with a team in Brussels, a game engine integrated into the 3D modeling software Blender. Made a small game to illustrate the book and the engine.
Configure web servers (Debian). Set up Redmine services. Use a CMS (Joomla) and configure websites.
Note: automation is important, I am using some GH actions to deploy (without any downtime) and I use ansible to manage my server.
Magic Milp – Solve ordering products (magic cards) across multiple shops with the best total price (shipping included) using some mixed-integer linear programming. No backend, frontend with React and Vite, everything is done in the browser but added a proxy to bypass CORS from the main website.
Hi Stranger – A dating app with a twist to meet strangers. Start with audio chat with a person matching your interests, then when you are ready enable the videotogether. No swipes, no filters - more natural, more spontaneous. Build with React, Laravel, and WebRTC.
Homelab – As a true geek, I have a setup a home server with TrueNAS scale, to basically host all my data, and services like Immirch manage photos/videos. Also configured TailScale to be able to access my home network from anywhere for the private apps and using Cloudflare tunnel to expose for the public apps.
Correspondance – An end to end encrypted messaging application, with a twist: a user can only see the same amount of message emitted an received, the idea is to equilibrate conversation, if you want to see more message with an other user, send more messages. Build with React Native, Laravel.
Planner – Simple unfinished frontend application to plan projects and team members tasks, with an option to import/export data (down for now).
Alpha – Website to solve some math problems (wip).
