Everything you're seeing right now. The cursor behavior, spring physics, all hand-built with GSAP tickers and raw pointer events. No cursor libraries.
Hey, I'mveryCrunchy
fullstack developer. I build web apps, tools, and things I want to exist.
Self-taught. I care more about shipping something real than getting the architecture perfect on the first pass. Always building, usually in public.

1.1
This Site
The site you're on. I keep rebuilding it.
The cursor runs on a custom spring physics engine. Snap points, morphing border-radius, velocity dampening. Written from scratch with GSAP ticker loops and raw pointer events. I am perhaps not normal about this.

In Progress
What I'm building right now. Subject to change.
Photo Portfolio
A photo journal for my shoots. Every shot has context, location, what I was going for. Shot on Fujifilm X-T5.

Infrastructure
Deployment tooling for your own infrastructure.
Obiente Cloud
A self-hostable PaaS for deploying apps across multiple nodes. Multi-node deploys, auto-scaling, Traefik routing, Zitadel auth, Prometheus and Grafana. Built because I needed it and nothing else fit.
2.2
Monitoring
Uptime monitoring. Own your data.
Uppe.
Uptime monitoring where the nodes watch each other. Results are cryptographically signed, consensus published globally. If the monitor goes down, you still know.

Photography
I got my first camera not long ago and immediately became obsessed
It gives me a reason to go outside. Real places, real light. Shot on Fujifilm X-T5.

The Journal
Every shoot documented. Location, context, what I was going for.
Photo Journal
Every shoot documented front to back. Location, what I was going for, what worked. Shot on Fujifilm X-T5.

Process
The gear. Nothing special.
Kit & Workflow
Fujifilm X-T5. XF 16-80mm f/4 R OIS WR. DxO PhotoLab for editing. The camera matters less than where you point it.

About Me

Background
The short version.
Background
I'm 18, from the Netherlands. Stopped going to school, spent those years at my computer teaching myself to code. No plan, just curiosity and a lot of time.
Got my first camera recently and it kind of changed things — gives me a reason to go outside. I make music too. Everything self-taught.
This site is the intersection of all of that.
No degree, no bootcamp. Years of reading docs, breaking things, and figuring out how they work. That's all.
