I design my apps as a core: a minimal, stable, ergonomic foundation. At launch there’s no database and no embedded AI. The app starts simple, fast, and portable.
The idea
The core contains the interface, user flow, and essential tools. Everything else is added on demand through external API keys.
External keys, total control
Advanced features come from third‑party services. You connect your own keys, pick your providers, and stay in control.
Why it’s so light
- No required back‑end
- No server storage
- No heavy dependencies
- Fast load, clean UI, minimal footprint
Add keys, unlock advanced power
Once you enter your keys, the core expands: exports, AI, automation, integrations. One app can stay ultra‑simple or become very powerful—without changing the interface.
Web3 Cloud with IPFS
When cloud storage is needed, I use IPFS for content‑addressed files and Pinata only for pinning. The app uploads once, receives a CID, and uses that CID as the permanent reference. It keeps storage decentralized, verifiable, and portable—without building a heavy server stack.
Privacy by design
No database, no tracking, no forced cloud. Calls are explicit and direct, and you decide what leaves your machine.
A modular philosophy
I prefer clear, fast, extensible apps over heavy platforms. The result: web tools that are sleek, customizable, and respectful.
