I build things, run them myself, and automate the parts that get annoying. ToadTech is where I keep the public stuff: web apps, servers, robotics work, local AI tools, and odd little utilities that started as weekend experiments.

Stuff that survived the tinkering phase.

The main builds first, then school and community work, then the smaller tools I still use or learned something from.

Started with HTML. Got out of hand.

I'm a 17-year-old developer and tinkerer. I started making simple HTML pages on my dad's computer when I was six. Now the same habit shows up as web apps, self-hosted services, robotics projects, and AI utilities.

The pattern is pretty simple: figure out how the thing works, then wire it into something useful. Sometimes that becomes a dashboard. Sometimes it becomes a robot. Sometimes it becomes a daemon quietly doing its job in the background.

  • modemake it work, then make it less ugly
  • terrainweb apps, automation, servers, robotics, local AI
  • biasself-host it when the setup teaches something
  • siteportfolio, project index, lab notebook with better CSS

What I usually end up building.

Mostly interfaces, daemons, devices, infrastructure, and AI tools built close enough to the metal that I actually learn where the sharp edges are.

InterfacesDashboards, school and community sites, single-purpose tools, quick prototypes.
AutomationScripts, command launchers, monitoring, and glue between services.
InfrastructureSelf-hosted servers, remote control, deployment scripts, local-first experiments.
HardwareRobotics builds, electronics, control loops, Science Olympiad machines.

Got a weird problem?

The prototype keeps contact simple. Point the button at email, a form endpoint, or whatever contact method you actually want to use.
