Projects as content

AI made it much easier to produce content. I've started to build products as ways of explaining things instead. It's fast to build, but still requires love. And I find that people learn a lot more with something interactive. These are some of my "products as content".

  • Private Payments Visualizer

    Walks through every way of doing private payments on Solana, side-by-side, so you can see the tradeoffs without reading three whitepapers.

  • ETH to SOL

    Helps Ethereum devs move to Solana โ€” explains the concepts side-by-side and translates code via a Claude Code skill I wrote. Built on Solana itself, using its architecture and security model.
