Authentic Timer

A clean timer for gentle productivity

In November 2024, while enduring a sickness that limited my daily quality of life, I needed to manage my time carefully in the very few hours I could focus. I searched for a clean, uncluttered timer that felt safe, but kept jumping between apps instead of having one productivity hub.

That's when I conceived an "authentic timer", helping me prepare focused sessions of 25, 30, 45, or 50 minutes to tackle books, emails, paperwork, with everything listed and timeboxed.

A year later, after collecting feedback and studying productivity, the nervous system, and ADHD, it became something I was proud to share with the world.

Ubon - Peace of mind for vibe-coded apps

Ubon

Peace of mind for vibe-coded apps

Ubon is a pragmatic scanner for React/Next.js, Vue, and Python projects. It complements your linter by catching issues that slip into production: hardcoded API keys, broken links and assets, risky eval patterns, basic accessibility misses, and dependency vulnerabilities. A small safety net with CI-friendly JSON/SARIF and pre-commit hooks, built for the age of AI-generated, vibe-coded apps.
