What I'm working on right now
A snapshot of where my focus is this month. If you've read a /now page before, you know the drill: current, honest, and updated when things change.
Last updated: August 2026.
Building out Build with Baker
Most of my hours right now go into websites for local businesses. I've built four templates - trades, restaurants, lodging and guides, shops and offices - and a demo showroom so someone can see the thing working instead of imagining it from a description. The first client site is in progress now, which is the part that turns four templates into a real process: the intake form, the handoff, the parts I only find out are awkward by doing them once.
The tools
The tools still ship, just on the side. Wren, my local-first sticky-notes app, is in beta and now runs three ways - web, Chrome extension, and a Windows desktop app - with Google Drive sync working if you want your notes on your phone. Pinion.md is live at v1.6 and gets polish updates. UniStyle stays live and maintained as the most-used thing I've shipped. They move slower than they did in the spring, and that's a deliberate trade, not neglect. The full history lives in the ship log.
Writing and posting
I write up the practical workflows I'm actually using - lately that's as much about building sites quickly as it is about AI. The longer thoughts go to the writing section where they're easier to find and read than a buried thread.
The day job and the Northwoods
I still spend my days in DevOps: security, systems, the operational work that keeps things running. That's where a lot of the local-first, privacy-minded instinct in my tools comes from. And I'm doing all of it from Ashland, Wisconsin, on the south shore of Lake Superior.
