Projects

Here are some side-projects I built to solve problems/issues I encountered or to try out new frameworks, libraries, etc.

Linkstash

AstroAlpineJsSQLite

Simple bookmarks dashboard. The idea came to me when I kept on switching browsers and computers, I was tired of having to re-import my bookmarks all the time.

There's a demo account if you want to check it out. The project is not available to external sign-ups.

This project was my first playground to test out Astro SSR (using actions). It became my homepage on every browser and device I have. It will evolve with time as I find new ideas as to what can be implemented in it.

Small stuff

Here is the small stuff I built to solve small problems.

Apple Photos EXIF Date Updater

Bash

This came from an issue I had when importing photos from Apple Photos to another tool. Full story in this blog post.

ebacala.com - OG Image Generator

JavascriptPuppeteer

I was tired of using external tools to create OG images so I built my own (super) small tool.
