Open-Source Product Development: Rungset and OpenMate
I build software that people can inspect, use, and contribute to. My public projects include Rungset, a web-first goal workspace under AGPLv3; OpenMate, an open-source contributor assistant; and SaveIt, a Chrome bookmark extension under MIT.

Build for use as well as publication
Open-source product work has two audiences: people using the software and people trying to understand or modify its source. Clear setup, data ownership, contribution boundaries, and licensing matter alongside the user-facing features.
Rungset is a web-first goal and task workspace published under AGPLv3. OpenMate analyzes public repositories and helps contributors choose a real issue to investigate. SaveIt is a browser-local bookmark manager whose source is available under MIT.
Different products, different constraints
The projects address different engineering problems. Rungset needs authenticated multi-user persistence and a hosted application. OpenMate needs bounded repository ingestion, grounded model output, and a secure chat boundary. SaveIt needs reliable local storage and a way to export user data.
Working across these products means treating license, deployment, privacy, and data migration as explicit product decisions. A public repository is useful when the application itself is also understandable and usable.
