  • TSCPL

    Discontinued Moved to https://codeberg.org/mdwalters/TSCPL

    • I ported my friend's programming language from Python to TypeScript[1], and its one of the projects I'm proud of. Another (scrapped) one would be my CLI Jed translation file editor, written in NodeJS. It was scrapped due to inefficiency and the lack of motivation to work on it.

  • lnav

    Log file navigator

    • The Logfile Navigator (https://lnav.org), a logfile viewer for the terminal. Started it in 2006 and have used it most every day since to view the logs of whatever software I was working on at the time.
