I build software that holds up.
I’m Dallin Jones. I write APIs and infrastructure for a living, and small, careful tools on the side. This is where I keep them, and what I learn along the way.

01 — Projects
Things I’ve built on the side.
Each one started as a problem at my own desk or my own game table. They live on their own subdomains.

Haruspex
Watches, observes and examines the entrails of a REST API, and tells you what it finds. The name is the Latin for a reader of entrails.

Sleuthly
A detective notebook for Clue. It tracks every suggestion at the table, works out who holds which cards, and shows the odds on each one.

02 — Notes
Written down so I remember.
Fixes, setups and the odd opinion, from building and running things.
No notes yet. The first one is being written.
