Most of my production work is private client code, but here is the shape of it.
Kryptium. A Discord bot serving over a thousand users, with event management and in-app currency systems, backed by RESTful APIs for events, wallets, and identity. It has been holding 99.9% uptime, which I am quietly proud of.
Candor. A multi-channel fulfilment dashboard that keeps orders in sync across Amazon, Shopify, and Walmart. FastAPI and React on top of MongoDB, with Stripe billing, USPS tracking, and a label pipeline that reads PDFs with OCR so nobody has to type tracking numbers by hand.
ShipFlow. An automated shipping pipeline that watches Dropbox, generates Shippo labels, sorts out multi-box orders, and recovers gracefully when something falls over mid-run, because in production something always eventually falls over.
The pinned repos are the things I can show in full. ecoflowbot is a favourite: it watches my EcoFlow power station over MQTT and pings me the moment grid power drops, which matters more than it sounds when you are running servers from Nigeria.
