Projects
A snapshot of what I'm building — products, client work, personal sites, and the open-source Go stack underneath them.
Products
| Project | Description |
|---|---|
| Gazile | The Business OS you can run yourself — accounting, CRM, inventory/ERP and treasury for SMBs on one entity graph, shipped as a single self-hosted binary. Includes Gazile Forms, a standalone form collector. |
| Mailnite | The protected home mail server — SMTP, IMAP, POP3, CalDAV/CardDAV, a Gmail-class webmail and an AI that knows your mailbox, all in one static binary. |
| Tismis | Where the Philippines is talking right now — the warm messenger. Kwentuhan, live ☀️ |
| Sendnite | Link to a secret — paste a secret or upload a file, get a short one-time link that stops working after it is viewed. |
| Depecher | Blocking-resistant, end-to-end-encrypted messenger — public-key identity over a federated mesh of relays that blends into normal HTTPS. |
| Webby | Professional-matching social network — clients, companies, specialists and teams find each other by projects, competencies, portfolio and budget. |
| Karagatan | Your own cloud, on your own servers — the Kubernetes cloud provider that runs every site on this page. |
| BananaDate | Verified dating for people who show up. |
| rel² | Know which agents to trust — a neutral reputation graph for the agent internet, tying every AI agent to an accountable owner and a verifiable track record. |
| Ineto | Open payment network for software, businesses, people and AI agents — with a privacy-enabled blockchain for transactions that need one. |
| Staphi | Your AI hiring department for small businesses — describe a role, get a published apply page, AI-screened applicants and a ranked shortlist. (In development.) |
Client work

| alexshvid.com | This blog — deep learning, algorithms & engineering. |
| shvid.com | Professional portfolio — frontend, backend, AI/ML, MLOps, DevOps & infrastructure architecture. |
| schwid.com | The Schwid / Shvid family archive — one rare surname, many spellings: a historical archive, diaspora map and living family tree. |
Open source — the arpabet Go stack
I believe that open source is the perfect model for publishing and exchanging ideas with solutions invented by humanity. Knowledge must be open for everybody — in the end, we all benefit from it.
Most products above run on one open-source Go stack, published at arpabet.com with vanity imports served by go.arpabet.com:
| Project | Description |
|---|---|
| glue | Runtime dependency-injection container for Go, inspired by Spring. |
| cligo | Declarative CLI framework with DI, struct-based declarations and enterprise configuration. |
| servion | All-in-one framework for production web services — CLI, DI container and HTTP server. |
| store | Transactional, capability-aware data-store interface over badger, pebble, bbolt and friends. |
| value | Deterministic canonical serialization — the same value always encodes to the same bytes, ready for hashing and signing. |
| value-rpc | vRPC — schemaless RPC framework with all four gRPC interaction patterns and no IDL or codegen. |
| warp | RPC protocol on top of WebSockets. |
| raft / raft-badger | Raft consensus building blocks and a BadgerDB backend for HashiCorp Raft. |
| consensusdb | Strongly consistent, raft-replicated key-value store serving the store interface over the network. |
| record | Multi-tenant, raft-replicated, indexed record store. |
| sprint | The Sprint framework and its capability modules as one multi-module monorepo. |
| obfs | Traffic-shaping middleware that hides application fingerprints in packet sizes and timing. |
| base62 / uuid | Canonical Base62 codec and an allocation-conscious UUID with first-class TimeUUID support. |
| pebblestore | Pebble-backed implementation of the key-value store interface. |
| mailnite concept | DNS-based public-key discovery for end-to-end encrypted email. |
| unipack | Universal serialization framework. |
