The workshop
Things I've Built
Open source, side projects, AI experiments, and creative work.
What I'd show you first
UI Pattern Library
Interface patterns lifted out of projects I actually shipped. Each one renders live in an isolated frame and comes with its markup, its styles, its behaviour, and the prompt that rebuilds it from scratch.
- HTML
- CSS
- JavaScript
Open Source
Public repositories on GitHub
Cottage UI
A component library for React, built alongside a YouTube tutorial series. Clean, reusable, well-tested code.
cc-dash
A dashboard and Model Context Protocol server for a project portfolio whose entire state lives in markdown files. Twenty-five zod-typed MCP tools let Claude Code read roadmaps, advance sessions, and work QA queues without anyone opening the UI. No database: the files are the source of truth, and git is the audit log.
Skillbox
A collection of personal prompts and utility prompts packaged as SKILLs for Claude Code. Easily installable via npx.
