The Lab

I do not only describe systems.
I build the ideas I want to test.

The lab is where architecture becomes executable: frameworks, edge networks, privacy models, and projects that cross the boundary between software and the physical world.

Framework · Node.js

simpleService

A lightweight, self-configuring microservice framework designed to make small services easy to compose into larger distributed systems.

  • Dynamic, propagated configuration
  • Gateway and layered service composition
  • Embedded persistence, monitoring and circuit breaking
  • HTTP tunneling and distributed deployment
  • Configuration-driven calls and service discovery
  • AI-oriented JSON workflows and edge licensing concepts

The framework is intentionally opinionated around one idea: infrastructure should not become the reason a small service is difficult to build.

customer/index.js
const { Service } = require("simpleservice")

const app = new Service("customer")

app.get("/customer/:id", async (req, res) => {
  // domain logic
})

app.init()
Small enough to understand. Structured enough to join a system.

Case study · simpleService in use

Letters from the Wind

A physical/digital communication experiment built as a network of small services: letters, rendering, stamps, identity, delivery, geolocation, feedback, PDF generation and routing.

Its public experience intentionally slows communication down — anonymous words travel from one shore to another as physical letters — while the technical system underneath coordinates a surprisingly complex chain of real-world events.

The common thread

Software becomes interesting when it has to survive reality.
