Projects

GitTheFont
About
GitTheFont is a project that uses TanStack Start, you are able to search GitHub's API for any files in any repository that contains any font you're searching for. This is good to test out certain fonts that people have uploaded publicly that you may be on the fence about.

next-betterauth
About
I enjoy using Next-Auth for my authentication in Next.js, but you can't do many things with it. There is no register/signup at all within it and no way to track if a user has never signed up with you before. The aim of this project is to be a more flexible Next-Auth.
-
hono-tailwind
About
I was enjoying server rendering HTML and JSX with Hono (Express replacement) but one of my painpoints was that I couldn't use Tailwind unless I spun up a separate vite process on the side in development. So I built hono-tailwind to automatically compile tailwind classes for me using postcss.
