Projects

Systems I've designed and run on my own infrastructure. They exist because I wanted them, and they double as an honest signal: this is how I build when nobody is making me.

Moneta

Next.js 14 · Hono · SQLite + Drizzle · TanStack Query · local ML

A self-hosted personal finance platform tracking six brokerage accounts with proper performance math — TWR, MWR, Sharpe, max drawdown — fed by SimpleFIN, Plaid, and broker exports. 7,000+ transactions, 3 years of history, running on a Mac at home. Local-only by design.

SanthoshIAS

Rust · Axum · priority-chain DataResolver · DuckDB · Redis

A financial data gateway routing requests across six market data providers with automatic failover. One endpoint, one contract, six providers behind it. The same integration pattern used at institutional scale, pressure-tested at personal scale.

FlowDeck

Rust · flowengine crate · JSON filter DSL · WebSocket replay

A self-hosted options-flow analytics platform that replaced a paid SaaS subscription. Live trade classification, z-score composite scoring, filters as JSON configuration. The full story is in the case study.

APEX / AlphaEdge

Python · FastAPI · React 18 · DuckDB · Bayesian expectancy · per-symbol state machines

An options analytics and trading platform, now at v11. Five-layer safety architecture, Bayesian expectancy engine, market-character classification, and a postmortem-driven design process. Built like a production system because the consequences are real.

KidStream

Pinchflat · Jellyfin · Swiftfin · Apple TV · NAS

A curated, self-hosted media stack for children. Allowlisted content only, no algorithm, no ads, no tracking. The local-first philosophy applied to the toughest user base there is.

All of it runs on a Terramaster NAS behind a Tailscale overlay network, in Docker, with local LLMs via Ollama where they earn their keep. The philosophy is consistent: local-first, self-hosted, zero unnecessary cloud dependency.
