A full-stack livestock farm-management SaaS maintained over two years: Express/MongoDB API with 13 per-species models, subscription billing, sandbox API keys and audit logging; a Redux-powered React dashboard; and design-first wireframes - run with a small team and CI.
A Redis-queued Node/FFmpeg system that turns public Reddit content into publishable 16:9 videos - TTS, image compositing, and video assembly as cron-driven backend jobs - shipped with its own hosted JSDoc documentation site.
2019–2024: the posting operation of a solo music brand, fully automated - content curation bots, tweet-screenshot cross-posters, crash-tolerant launchd schedulers with missed-run recovery and idempotency files - the same problem solved four times across two languages as the craft matured.
A personal platform play: one Express/Mongoose skeleton harvested from real projects, hardened from 2020 JavaScript into typed, DTO-validated 2024 TypeScript with auth, error handling, and observability baked in - demonstrably reused across at least four shipped backends. Plus a 2020 vendored Huginn, proving the agent-automation obsession predates LLMs.
A two-generation fleet-management API (2020–2021): GPS trip tracking and vehicle records in v1, re-platformed in v2 as a multi-tenant SaaS with companies, plans, API keys, sandbox mode, and guarantors - built by a two-person team, and the origin of a backend boilerplate reused for years.
Seven years of idea-to-repo experiments (2019–2026): startup APIs with real team conventions, a Nigerian land/property dashboard, same-day Valentine apps, LLM probes, and a React task manager with Jest tests. The honest record every founder has and few publish.
