PROJECTS
AORNUM

Here is the list of projects I have worked on. The code to all of them can be found on my Github, some of them have a live version that you can check out, sadly that's not the case for all of them, mostly because I don't want to keep going back to them and troubleshoot the issues that may have come up from months/years old code.

Each of them has a small writeup about what I did, why and how and what I learned from them.

2025

"I'm really in pursuit of greatness. I want to be one of the greats, inspired by the greats — and I want to be up there."
In 2025, the focus shifts from depth to excellence. I want to tackle harder, more challenging projects that push me beyond my comfort zone — projects that demand I finish the complex last 20% instead of settling for "good enough."

The goal: build fewer things, but take my time to refine them, learn deep not broad.

2024

In 2024, I shifted from exploration to mastery. Instead of learning a little about everything, I doubled down on a core stack: React, Next.js, and tRPC.

The mentality stayed the same — build for the sake of building — but with a new constraint: spend more time on fewer projects, polish them properly, and learn the technology deeply rather than broadly.

2023

In 2023, I went wide. I learned as many technologies and frameworks as I could, building a broad understanding of the web development ecosystem. The goal was simple: just build stuff. Lots of small projects, mostly for myself and friends.

About halfway through the year, I found this blog post by Nick Tietz that resonated deeply. Who cares if you build something no one uses? Who cares if you write something no one reads? The point is to build for the joy of building, for the satisfaction that comes with creating something from nothing.
