I'm Spooky. I taught myself Linux, infrastructure and software by running my own systems and building the tools I wanted, and I still work that way: start from a real problem, get it working, then make it something other people can rely on.
Most of my open-source work is around local AI on consumer hardware: benchmarks that show their evidence, presets you can reproduce, and small tools that make engines cooperate. Alongside that I build web products and client sites, from a local-first health tracker to the website for a family cleaning business, and the occasional research toy that I find too interesting to leave alone.
I care about privacy and self-hosting, and about saying what a thing actually does. If something is experimental, synthetic or someone else's work, the project page says so.
tools I reach for
- languages
- TypeScript, Python, JavaScript, Kotlin, some Rust and R
- web
- Next.js, React, Vite, Tailwind, static sites and PWAs
- local AI
- llama.cpp, vLLM, CUDA and Vulkan on consumer GPUs
- infrastructure
- Proxmox, LXC, Arch Linux, self-hosted services
working together
I take on websites and practical software for small businesses and individuals, and I'm happy to talk about open-source collaboration. Send a note or email admin@5p00ky.dev.
