  • photo-db-fs

    I recently wrote photo-db-fs a program that exposes the tags and ratings stored in the digiKam database as a FUSE file system.

  • rclone

    "rsync for cloud storage" - Google Drive, S3, Dropbox, Backblaze B2, One Drive, Swift, Hubic, Wasabi, Google Cloud Storage, Yandex Files

    My main starting motivation was so I could have my desktop background just cycle through all my favorite photos automatically. Since writing it I have found some other uses for it like pushing some tags photos to google photos via rclone to show on the Chromecast background on my TV.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • go-fuse

    FUSE bindings for Go

    The nice thing is there are lots of libraries out there for implementing a FUSE file system that adds a layer of abstraction over the actual kernel APIs so you don't need to deal with that low level of code. In particular I am using https://github.com/hanwen/go-fuse, which seems to be the defacto standard for FUSE with Go.
