Projects
GoMES
A real-time, event-driven framework written in Go for dynamic, concurrent data collection and processing.
- Built a namespace engine to contextualize data in a hierarchical structure.
- Implemented support for namespace governance and scoped control.
- Decoupled services using gRPC for efficient inter-service communication.
- Enabled automatic MQTT topic generation from the namespace engine.
- Integrated an htmx admin UI for configuration and monitoring.
Ignition Sift (VS Code Extension)
Barebones, stub-driven auto-imports for Ignition scripting projects.
- Generates Python stubs from Ignition project structure for robust autocompletion.
- Builtin generator converts Python 2 type comments into Python 3 compatible type hints for modern tooling (Pyright).
- Indexes top-level classes and functions across generated stubs for fast symbol search and import suggestions.
- Designed to be configurable and well-documented to support diverse Ignition project use cases.
