about this human_
I'm Ethan, a software developer who enjoys building products from the interface down to the systems underneath.
I care about software that feels fast, understandable and slightly more delightful than it needs to be.

// experiments ongoing
the lab_
L-01
motion studies_
Small interactions, physically satisfying buttons, and experiments that know when to stay still.
L-02
system prototypes_
Presence, queues, resilient clients, and tiny tools for asking large architecture questions.
L-03
reverse engineering_
Taking things apart carefully enough to learn how to put better things together.
L-04
learning tools_
Interfaces that make practice feel lighter without hiding the work.
// bonus level
tiny terminal_
A safe little window into Ethan's world. No arbitrary shell commands. Orugu has already tried.
