This site is a rewrite of my original Polymer-based site, keeping the Material theme using Vuetify. NuxtJS provides a framework to just focus on the comment, and GitHub Actions provide a CI/CD platform for effortless updates.

A WIP Android logging application for QSO's (Ham Radio contacts). I've tried to use Android best practices, such as progressive enhancement with bigger screens and material design. Once I have syncing via cloud services (initially Dropbox) working between this app and Xlog, I will release this on the Play Store.

A Firefox add-on using the (Jetpack) Add-on SDK to record new papers in Astro-ph for easily posting on the UToledo Physics Department's Hot Topics journal club. It hasn't been rewritten as a WebExtension, but does support e10s and goes through Mozilla's review process for add-ons.

Website generated concurrently with a model grid of simulations. A Python program is run every hour to keep the simulations running, produce synthetic observations of completed simulations, and create associated thumbnails or HTML pages using Jinja2.

Following lessons in Let's Build A Simple Interpreter in several languages. Unlike the author of those blog posts, I've used Enum objects (introduced in Python3.4) to simplify the code for the Python versions. I've also used this as a way to brush up on newer versions of C++ and Perl.

Simple static website. Used Coffeescript and Sass converters for Jekyll to generate the website, and GitHub for low-maintenance hosting.

A website used internally to list and summarize the available data for a sample of protostars used by the HOPS team. Thumbnails are generated from an assortment of telescopes, FITS and LMV files are searched for relevant files (with easy download or viewing with JS9), results of Furlan, et al's SED fitting, archive/database search results , and links to other archive/database searches are given.

This app stemmed from a simple use-case: the ability to tap a shortcut on an Android home screen, and see predictions for the next few buses at a particular bus stop. While my use was with the Chicago Transit Authority, the design allowed for other transit authorities using the Clever Devices BusTime API. Development ceased once I moved out of the Chicago area; the Google Maps app can now replace this app.

Wanting a convenient way to assess how much time until needing to leave to catch the bus, I wrote this Firefox extension to add arrival time predictions to the status bar. Development ceased once I obtained a smartphone with data connectivity and created see Autolycus.

Simple GTK2 program for downloading or viewing schedules from the Chicago Transit Authority system or PACE suburban buses. While it works fine on a PC, I cross-compile to ARM to run this on my OpenMoko Neo Freerunner. Development ceased after the CTA rolled out GPS tracking on their buses and I started ChiBusTrack.
