Hey, I'm Archie. I joined
Fillout
a while back as the first engineering hire, and this is my little corner of the internet for other bits
I've worked on.
Taiven
Email app that groups messages like chat services. No more 1000+ unread emails.
New! Sidebox - A browser extension for creating instant email inboxes
Verifications API
My personal Twilio/SendGrid alternative. One-time verification codes for emails and phone numbers. Reverse-engineered a 4G router to programmatically send SMS messages.
WhatsApp Proxy

Everyone is sleeping on Bun + JSX.
If you're making a web *app* rather than a website, sure, go for React + tRPC.
But JSX on its own is the perfect server-side templating engine. Just serve pure, vanilla HTML pages.
npm packages I've published
Let's chat?
GitHub
(Oh by the way I'm also LARPing as an electrician and this website is running on a completely solar-powered homelab setup in a cabin I built. Ask me about it if you're interested.)
