Welcome to RichCorbs.com!

This is my personal site where I explore new things.

The pages on this site are made with TailwindCSS and AlpineJS, and are hosted on Netlify.

  • AFXC: An exploration of using a google spreadsheet as a CMS. It uses a 3rd party API to access the data.
  • CMS0: An exploration of a CMS interface with tree-like relationships between components. Didn't get very far. No database.
  • CMS: An exploration of using a deta.sh function and deta base to create a CMS with tree-like relationships between components.
  • CMS DGraph: An exploration of using Dgraph.io to create a CMS with tree-like relationships between components.
  • CMS Graphql: An exploration of using nhost.io (hasura) to create a CMS with tree-like relationships between components.
  • CMS Nubo: An exploration of using nubostore.app to create a CMS with tree-like relationships between components.
  • Duck: Playing the idea of "rubber duck debugging" and what a UI might look like.
  • Email Templates: Exploring a concept for making email templates with reusable components. Super fun but never went anywhere.
  • Intervals: Started creating my own little interval timer.
  • JTA: Job Task Analysis. Just exploring this interface concept for my side job.
  • Kanban: Created my own kanban board. It's not backed by a database. Super fun!
  • LGBTQUT: Exploring retrieving data from a google spreadsheet for the lgbtqut.com website. They weren't interested. I parsed the data myself into JSON. There are probably other, better ways to do it but it was fun.
  • LGBTQUT-2: Changed up the method for retrieving the data and let someone else parse it for me. Super slick.
  • Lights: A friend asked for help to make his business's product configurable over the internet. This was an attempt at UI and database for it. It probably doesn't work any more.
  • Maps: A friend had the idea to make some "map tools/worksheets" for his high school geography students. This was a feeble attempt at making those tools/worksheets.
  • Mockups: This one was fun! The idea is to create "fat marker mockups" for UI concepts along the lines of the Basecamp "Shape Up" approach.
  • Moods: A scrum retro tool for evaluating the mood of the team.
  • MyGQL: An exercise in building my own query language and server to go with it.
  • RSS: Built my own RSS reader following a blog post.
  • Placer: This is a tool for recording cross country runners as they cross the finish line and calculating the team standings.
  • Pointer: This is a scrum grooming tool like "pointing poker" for estimating the complexity of a development effort. I think I used Supabase for this one.
  • Quadrants: This is a scrum retro tool. Select parameters for two axes and team members can place themselves somewhere on the grid.
  • Router: Tried to write my own javascript router.
  • Timer: A system for timing cross country meets. Includes teams, athletes, registrations, and timing! I used supabase for this.
  • Trip Cost: This page allows you to pick the year, make, model, and engine of your vehicle, input a distance and then based on publically available data calculates the cost of the gas to make that trip. I built this in just a couple of hours.
  • Userbase: Just trying out userbase to see what it was all about.
