Projects

Shipped tools, active work, and what's coming next - built with a focus on clarity, stability, and real-world use.

Current Flagship

Warhammer 40K: Space Marine 2 Mod Loader

Desktop mod manager and launcher built for safe, repeatable mod workflows.

Released

A Windows desktop mod manager that auto-detects Steam and Epic installs, isolates modded saves in a dedicated vault, and mirrors progress automatically after each session. No game files are ever overwritten — returning to vanilla play is always safe.

Applications & Services

Full-stack and backend systems built end to end.

Document Dispatch Service

Distributed job processing with real operational visibility.

Released

An ASP.NET Core dispatch pipeline demonstrating lease-based worker coordination, configurable concurrency, deterministic retry and failure handling, and Prometheus metrics — fronted by a live ops dashboard. Packaged with Docker Compose and PostgreSQL for a turnkey run.

Full-Stack E-Commerce Application

End-to-end storefront with real auth and real payments.

Released

A React and Node/Express application backed by PostgreSQL, with JWT and Google OAuth login, cart ownership enforcement, Stripe Checkout with verified webhook fulfillment, OpenAPI docs, and a smoke test suite. Deployed on Render as a single service.

Desktop Tools

Small, focused utilities available for purchase.

NK File Organizer

Organize files fast, without ceremony.

Released

A practical desktop tool for cleaning up messy directories — sort by type or date, preview every change before it runs, and rely on automatic backups and undo when something needs walking back.

NK Invoice Generator

Simple invoicing that stays out of your way.

Released

A desktop invoicing app for freelancers and small businesses — client and invoice management, professional PDF output, a revenue dashboard with overdue tracking, and CSV/JSON export for backup.
