NOKOUT Festival

A free community music festival in Vosselaar, run by a small team out of youth house De Nok and working toward its first edition. I help lead the organisation, and on the tech side I built the website from scratch in plain HTML, CSS and JavaScript and help out with its social media.

Flare

A festival regroup app born from years of attending festivals and losing my friends on the festival ground: create a group, share a 6-character code, and when someone gets lost they hit the FLARE button - it pings the whole crew and opens live location sharing for 15 minutes. No always-on tracking, a dark minimal UI, and built to survive a saturated festival network and a dying battery. Flutter on top of Supabase Realtime, with Google Maps and push notifications.

Slipstream

An adaptive multi-sport training planner for balancing sport with work and a personal life: instead of a rigid 12-week schedule that ties you up, it starts from your actual week - free hours, how you feel, the weather - and continuously rebuilds a realistic plan that adapts to your life, not the other way round. A deterministic Python/FastAPI scheduling engine drives the plan, with two-way Garmin sync, Strava import, Open-Meteo weather rules and an optional Claude layer that parses free-text check-ins, all served to a Flutter app for iOS and Android.

Segment Hunter

A personal Flutter app that tracks Strava segment PRs and flags which ones are close to being beaten - essentially rebuilding a Strava Premium feature for free. Built for personal use, shared with a few friends who ride as well.

  • Dart
  • Supabase
  • Strava API

NoteTaker

An internal tool I built at Ittes for Salesforce development meetings: jot down requirements and meeting notes in shorthand per feature while the conversation happens, let Claude expand them into full prose, and assemble everything into standardized documentation with Word export - so the write-up is done minutes after the meeting, not days later.

  • Supabase
