Looking for a reliable partner to bring your project to the next level? Whether it’s development, design, security, or ongoing support—I’d love to chat and see how I can help.
Markdown is perfect right up until a second person touches it. On your own, a folder of .md files is the best documentation system ever invented. Add four colleagues and suddenly you’ve got three different heading styles, a README that links to a domain that expired in 2023, and Steve, who writes every sentence in […]
The short version: you do not need to pay for icons. Three permissively licensed sets cover nearly every project I touch — Tabler Icons (6,100+ general icons, MIT), Phosphor Icons (a huge family in six weights, MIT), and Lucide (1,808 minimal stroke icons, ISC). Need something specific that is not in those three? SVG Repo […]
Everybody writes about Markdown editors. I did too, in The Best Open Source Markdown Editors for Writing and Beyond. But here’s the thing nobody tells you: the editor is the least interesting part of the whole stack. It’s the moment after you hit save where Markdown gets genuinely wild. Your .md file can be rendered […]
You know that feeling when you click a link in a project’s README and it 404s right in your face? Me too. Broken links are the quiet rot of the web — they creep into documentation, blog posts, and large codebases without anyone noticing, and they make otherwise solid content look abandoned. The fix is […]
OCR used to be boring. You threw a scanned page at Tesseract, got back a wall of text with a few mangled characters, and moved on with your life. That was the whole genre for about fifteen years. Then vision language models showed up and ate the entire category. In the last eighteen months, document […]
Judge.me made headlines in September 2025 when it dropped WooCommerce, Squarespace, BigCommerce and most other platforms to become a Shopify-only app. For Shopify merchants that move was actually a vote of confidence: one of the most-installed review apps on the Shopify App Store is now all-in on your platform. But “all-in” doesn’t mean “the only […]
Update: 06 / 2026 If you’ve ever tried building a dense, data-heavy web app, an administrative dashboard, or an IDE-style workspace, you know that managing screen real estate is a nightmare. For years, Golden Layout was the undisputed king of web-based window management, letting you smash together multi-window workspaces with tabs, resizable split views, and […]
If you’ve ever wrestled with WordPress email — patching together plugins, fighting Outlook rendering bugs, or explaining to a client why their transactional mail looks nothing like the design — you know the frustration. I got fed up. So I built my own solution: cubicFUSION Email Builder, a drag-and-drop email editor living right inside the […]
Designing HTML emails in 2026 is still, somehow, one of the most frustrating things a developer can do. Table layouts, inline styles, Outlook’s stubbornness — it’s a timeless nightmare. That’s why drag-and-drop email builders exist, and why the open source ones are getting genuinely good. Whether you want something you can embed in your own […]
PDF operations are one of those recurring pain points that never fully go away. You need to fill a contract template, strip and rewrite document metadata before archiving, generate an invoice from an HTML template, and stamp every page with a branded header. The default answer is a SaaS API subscription that charges per document […]
