My Work

Primary languages: Ruby, TypeScript/JavaScript. Python as needed.

Available for: freelance coding, AI workflow consulting, left-wing agitprop help.

Full-Stack Development

Modern Rails stack with React frontends:

• Rails with Avo (admin/backend) and Bullet Train (starter kit)
• Inertia.js for Rails + React integration
• Headless CMS experience: Strapi, Directus, WordPress
• TypeScript, React, Next.js

Ongoing Costs

Running these platforms requires ongoing investment:

• Hosting for AI coding and workflow apps
• Platform access & scraping resources (TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Twitch, Patreon, Social Blade, Twitter, Reddit)
• Premium Rails tools (Avo, Bullet Train)
• Self-hosted Twitter API infrastructure

Current costs: $100-250/month
Projected by 2027: ~$1K/month as platforms scale
