Ex-Google. I've spent a career getting big software onto constrained hardware — Google Earth into Audi's in-car navigation, YouTube onto TVs and game consoles. The embedded chapter is recent: the FastLED ecosystem — the library, a Rust build tool, a browser compiler, a video mapper — and a Rust stack aimed at making C++/embedded builds fast enough to actually iterate in.
Everything below exists because C++ and embedded build times are the whole inner loop.
| Project | Lang | What it is |
|---|---|---|
| zccache | Rust |
Local-first compiler cache for C/C++/Rust/Emscripten — drop-in replacement for sccache and ccache, with a one-line installer and binaries for every platform. |
| soldr | Rust |
Rust tools delivered as prebuilt, cached artifacts — first run in seconds instead of a cold compile. |
| reld | Rust |
Fork of the wild linker aimed at incremental relinking for the inner dev loop — Linux native, Windows/macOS via an lld bridge. Early days. |
| running-process | Rust |
Subprocess replacement that tracks zombie processes and launches PTYs. Ships to PyPI and crates.io. |
| clud | Rust |
Sandboxed Claude & Codex agent CLI — "safety third and God Mode always." |
Multi-backend Whisper app — blazing fast, Mac-arm optimized, insta-install. 1,300+ ★ and the most-used standalone tool here.
Older and lower-profile than the work above, and still the highest-traffic thing on the account — 300k+ installs a month.
How the Python pieces stack
Real dependency edges, taken from the published package metadata:

Working with me
Open source first — if a client project needs a piece that doesn't exist yet, it usually ends up on this profile as a standalone package with tests, CI and a release. That's why there are 200+ repos here, and why some of the smallest ones carry the most traffic.
