Tools I Have Used
Website Building
I built this site myself from scratch. I like React, but i18n was painful with Next.js, Gatsby, and Vike, so I use Astro here.
Hobby Development
I build whatever I feel like building whenever inspiration strikes. That is just who I am, so you will have to live with it.
I Know Some English
I still have not passed Eiken Grade 1 (equivalent to CEFR C1), which bothers me, but I have no motivation. My dream is to use English in VRChat.
Narrow Hobbies
Mostly Minecraft. Sometimes Arknights, #COMPASS, and a few other things.
Casual Chats Welcome
I like reaction sprees, like storms, and conversations that require no thought. Just keep it reasonable—nobody likes someone coming on too strong when they have only just met.
Music Taste
I like electronic sounds, powerful vocals, and guitars. Recommend that kind of music and I will be happy. I also listen to the Arknights OST a lot.
Showcase
Our Greatly Respected Mirin-kuyan
Apparently mastering karaoke lately. Let us all show due respect.
Craftsky
I made a Misskey server where people who make things can casually gather. Feel free to take a look.
Station Sign Generator
I am building a web app that makes it easy to create station signs. It is already quite usable, but it is still in beta, so I will keep adding features.
Japanese Passphrase Generator
Passwords are famously impossible for humans to remember, so I made a web app that automatically generates memorable ones.
UltiType
Since that damn site Monkeytype would never let me sign up, I went ahead and built my own typing practice app. I will keep expanding it. It is aimed at intermediate and advanced typists.
#COMPASS Resume Generator
I made this out of an overwhelming desire to avoid opening a drawing app just to create a #COMPASS resume.
CPU Monitor for Stream Deck
I made a Stream Deck plugin where PartyParrot shows CPU usage. It was also one of my first mostly vibe-coded projects.
Moremobility Mod
This was made by sysnote, not me. It is an Automobility addon that adds things like huge harvesters and netherite engines.
Create Cities Server
I also run a Minecraft server with a very large, mostly tech-focused modpack. It is friends-only, but people I know are welcome to ask.
