Open Source Portfolio

I’ve been developing software since I was a teenager learning to code in QBasic, Turbo Pascal, and HyperCard. In 2009 I earned a Master of Science in Computer Science. Over the following years I’ve become a generalist, tackling projects ranging from embedded Linux systems to reverse engineering Windows applications to full stack web development – and everything in between.

This portfolio highlights my work on open source projects.

selenium-webext-bridge

GitHub | npm

This npm library is aimed at engineers developing Firefox extensions who wish to verify them with Selenium tests. This grew out of a Firefox extension I was working on, as there was no way for Selenium to deal with Firefox tabs or easily communicate with extensions once they were installed.

Tech: Javascript, Selenium, Firefox, WebExtension, GitHub Actions, npm
Platforms: Windows, macOS, Linux

QSingleInstanceCheck

GitHub

Originally developed for Fang, this simple C++ header-only library can be used to not only ensure that one and only one instance of your app is running, but also send a signal to the original instance. In Fang this signal is primarly used on Windows to show the app when it’s been minimized to the system tray.

Tech: C++, Qt, shared memory, local socket/named pipe
Platforms: Windows, macOS, Linux

QAutoStart

GitHub

Also developed for Fang, this C++ library allows your Qt application to launch at user login. Designed to be easy to use, with only a single line of code to enable or disable the feature.

Tech: C++, Qt
Platforms: Windows, macOS, Linux
