Heya 🏳️‍🌈

I'm Malus, a cheepup on the internet who studies computer science badly and codes too much. You can check out some of my silly projects on my website malus.zone 🐆. I'm active on GitLab 🦊 and GitHub 🐙.

Projects

Coding is my main pastime – I love building cool stuff and constantly improving my skills. The majority of my projects have evolved from one another, creating my own little code ecosystem that I sink a lot of time into. I maintain some neat libraries and have built various web projects, all with a focus on being configurable, modular and easy to use.

Legend:
✅ Released and maintained or feature-complete
▶️ Unreleased but being developed
💤 Rarely worked on

Web projects

• ✅ Malus.zone (Website), my website
• ✅ Game of Life (Website), a feature-rich implementation of Conway's Game of Life
• ✅ Website-Common, a bunch of shared templates and static files for internal use by all my websites
• ▶️ 404-WebGL, an upcoming 404 page
• 💤 Scratchet (GitHub) (Website), a WebSocket based multiplayer drawing app with no external dependencies
• ❌ Snake, a very rough implementation of both a normal game of Snake and Snake on three axes
• ❌ Win95-Web (Website), a barebones JS implementation of Windows 95 with a feature-complete Minesweeper
• ❌ Graphics Experiments (Website), projects I did years ago to learn about WebGL and WebGL2
• ❌ Graphics tools, a collection of small WebGL2 helpers for use within my websites

Libraries

Bigger

• ▶️ SimpleViewRouter (GitHub pending) (npm pending), a clean and intuitive static site generator and dynamic router
• ▶️ InteractiveShadowDOM, a dynamic front end window multiplexer
• ▶️ trdoc (Website), a TypeDoc-based single-page documentation generator for TypeScript
• ▶️ Slider89, a front end range slider library

Small and self-contained

• ✅ SocketBase (GitHub) (npm), a tiny abstraction layer over WebSockets that automatically handles pings, timeouts and reconnects
• ✅ RuntimeTypeCheck (GitHub) (npm), a modular runtime type checker with a focus on smart and readable error messages
• ✅ UtilityWheel (GitHub), a drop-in front end utility wheel with four sections
• ▶️ Controls3D, a library for handling mouse and touch controls both in 2D and 3D space, featuring a comprehensive animation system
• ▶️ ReactiveStorage (GitHub) (npm), a library that allows the creation of deeply reactive data without the need for proxies

Misc

• ✅ vim-less-autocompile, a Vim plugin to automatically compile Less files to CSS on save
• ✅ codemirror-theme-moonfly (npm), a port of an excellent Vim dark theme for the CodeMirror editor

Standalone stuff

• ✅ dotfiles, containing my Vim config

Dependency graph

Here's a fun little dependency graph over all of my (side) projects. Generated using Graphviz with the sfdp layout engine.
