Experience

  • Tech Blog (Other amazing things)

    A place where I publish technical articles about things I've learned at work. Currently, I am focusing on front-end development with Vue.js and Nuxt.js. Recently I started publishing about Webflow and Alpine.js as well.

  • Sojourner PWA (Development)
    https://github.com/loomchild/sojourner-web

    Free and Open-source Software Developers' European Meeting (FOSDEM) conference companion progressive web app (PWA). Able to store favorite talks in persistent device storage.

    Live verstion:
    https://fosdem.sojourner.rocks
    https://flowcon.sojourner.rocks

    Written in Vue.js using VueX, Material Design.

  • Puffin (Development)
    https://github.com/puffinrocks/puffin

    Lightweight web app catalog based on containers, with a user interface à la mobile app store.

    The goal of the project is to allow the average, tech-oriented user to run web applications without worrying about a server. The idea is to create an easy to host, technology-agnostic private cloud.

    While many other tools are looking at containers as a way to run massive applications, Puffin concentrates on lightweight ones, each serving just a handful of people.

    Written using Docker, Python, and Flask.

    Live demo: http://puffin.rocks

  • Volume-backup (Development)
    https://github.com/loomchild/volume-backup

    A relatively popular utility to backup and restore Docker volumes.

    Written using Docker and Bash.

  • Reload (Development)
    https://github.com/loomchild/reload

    This utility starts the given program and reloads it whenever any file in current directory changes. It can be used as both Python library and standalone executable independent of programming language.

    Written in Python using the Watchdog library.

  • Segment (Development)
    https://github.com/loomchild/segment

    A tool to split text into segments, for example, sentences. Splitting rules are read from the SRX config file, which is based on regular expressions.

    The tool is optimized for performance, both in terms of processing power and memory consumption (it allows streaming processing). It has been used in commercial, open-source (LanguageTool) and scientific applications to process large text corpora, such as Wikipedia archives.

    Written in Java.

    I have also co-written a scientific paper based on this tool: https://loomchild.net/files/2013/12/Using_SRX_standard_for_sentence_segmentation_in_LanguageTool.pdf

  • Maligna (Development)
    https://github.com/loomchild/maligna

    mALIGNa is a program for aligning documents on the sentence level. It contains implementations of a few groups of alignment algorithms - algorithms based exclusively on the sentence length (Gale and Church, Brown), algorithms based on the connections between words (Moore's algorithm), as well as any variation and intersection of these algorithms. The aim of alignment is to obtain a bilingual corpus. It can be used for creating translation memories, translation by analogy, modeling probabilistic dictionaries, and other applications.

    Written in Java. Hosted on Maven central, used in commercial and scientific applications.

    I have co-authored a scientific paper based on this tool: https://loomchild.net/files/2013/12/A_new_tool_for_the_bilingual_text_aligning_at_the_sentence_level.pdf
