Everything I have built and written up.

Three case studies with the full story, plus 4 public repositories pulled from github.com/RowieK.

The long form

Bar chart comparing wall-clock runtime of SQD, ED and DMRG on a logarithmic scale

MolKet · Multi-month team project

MolKet

Four ground-state solvers, one CO₂ molecule, and a very wide spread of runtimes.

A multi-month benchmark comparing SQD, ED, VQE and DMRG on the ground-state energy of CO₂. SQD converged in 3.24 seconds; a full DMRG run would have taken an estimated 72 years.

Read the Echoes case study
The Echoes camera dashboard, showing active streams, a network scanner, saved hosts, an LED intensity slider and a Switch to Dark Mode button

Society 5.0 · Sprint-based team project

Echoes

An ESP32 camera, a custom dashboard, and a deliberate argument about who surveillance is designed for.

A live video dashboard streaming from an ESP32-CAM over TCP, built twice on purpose: a Light version designed around consent, and a Dark version designed to be invisible.

Read the StackTools case study
The StackTools home page, showing the three sections: developer tools, code snippets, and tips and playbook

Live, in active development

StackTools

451 snippets I kept needing, 51 tools that run in the browser, and the first website I ever put online.

A free developer site at stacktools.org. It started as somewhere to keep the snippets I kept having to look up again — including 24 PowerShell snippets for Active Directory, the kind that are genuinely hard to find — and grew into 451 snippets, 51 browser-only tools and a written playbook.

Echoes From the Shadows

Case study

ESP32-CAM live video over TCP, with a network scanner, saved hosts and audio capture. Built in a Light and a Dark version to demonstrate the difference between ethical and unethical surveillance.
