Projects
I build things because I enjoy it, not just for work. Here are some I'm particularly proud of:
Digital Kitchen
My bachelor's thesis: an open-source web app for self-hosted recipe management and meal planning, built on Django. Recipes are treated as structured information objects with rich metadata, controlled vocabularies and a focus on retrieval quality. Fully Docker-deployable, GDPR-compliant and data-sovereign.
PokéCollector
A self-hosted full-stack Pokémon TCG collection manager with price tracking, card scanning, wishlists, analytics and a community leaderboard. Multi-user, role management, multilingual UI, TCGdex API.
