Porter/Winfield · a workshop for small, useful tools
Apps I build for real people, one project at a time.
Each one is named after a ballplayer who shaped the game, and each one exists because someone I know needed it. Here is what's in the lineup, how far along it is, and a demo when there is one.
The lineup
Five projects. Two delivered, three in the works.
Posey
code that travels by emailGets a project folder onto a machine you can't push to. Mail filters eat zips and installers, so Posey writes the whole project as one text file with a checksum per file, plus a tiny script that turns it back. Proven on three machines, including one that had no Python at all.
Jigger
a box of puzzles on a shelfA jigsaw puzzle app for one non-technical person, on one Windows laptop, with no internet required. Pick a photo, pick easy or hard, do the puzzle. It remembers where every piece was left, forever. Delivered in September and in daily use since.
Rendon
ask for an icon, not a model idOne image-generation service behind all the other apps. Ask for a preset like icon or photo and Rendon picks the model, saves the image, and writes down exactly how it was made so the answer is still there in six months.
Lopes
the dictionary that checks itselfWrite down what every table and column should be, and Lopes scans DEV, UAT and PROD to show where each one agrees, drifts, is missing, or was never written down. It writes the SQL to move a table up. It never runs it.
Jeter
every take has a receiptA production tracker for AI video. Shows, seasons, episodes and scenes, a shared cast of synthetic actors, and a ledger that logs every generated take against what it cost, before anyone decides whether it was a keeper.
Off the Bench
Sometimes inspiration strikes between projects. Videos, experiments, and side quests that don't fit in the main lineup.
