I don't just want to use abstractions. I want to understand what happens underneath them.
A visual form builder focused on building a real-world SaaS architecture.
Built with
React TypeScript tRPC PostgreSQL Drizzle
Exploring
Monorepo · API Design · Authentication · Database Architecture
Engineering Concepts
Frontend ↔ Backend · API Contracts · Data Modeling · Deployment
An authentication and identity engineering project focused on understanding authentication under the hood.
Exploring
JWT HTTP-only Cookies OIDC OAuth
Deep Dive
state · nonce · authorization_code · access_token · id_token · sessions
Goal
Understand identity systems beyond simply adding an authentication library.
| Project | Demo | What it explores |
|---|---|---|
| 🧩 Formify | 🎬 Watch Demo | Visual form builder + API-first backend |
| 🔐 AuthForge | 🎬 Watch Demo | Authentication + identity engineering |
| ⚡ Backend Lab | 🎬 Watch Demo | APIs + webhooks + real-time systems |
💡 More engineering experiments and projects are being built continuously.
