Available for new projects

Software that gets out of your way.

galtcode is an independent software development and consulting practice. I design and build CLI tools, web applications, and backend systems that are fast, focused, and built to last.

Services

What I can help you build

Practical, maintainable solutions — from a single sharp tool to a complete product.

  • CLI Tools & Automation

    Fast, ergonomic command-line tools and scripts that turn repetitive work into a single command — with helpful output, sensible defaults, and shell completions.

    rust/node/bash

  • Web Applications

    Modern, accessible web apps built with React, Next.js, and TypeScript. Fast by default, type-safe end to end, and easy to maintain.

    next.js/react/typescript

  • APIs & Integrations

    Well-designed REST APIs, webhooks, and service integrations that connect your systems and keep data flowing reliably.

    rest/webhooks/.net

  • Performance Engineering

    Profiling, benchmarking, and targeted rewrites — sometimes in Rust — to remove bottlenecks where they actually matter.

    profiling/benchmarks/rust

  • Code Review & Consulting

    Architecture guidance, code reviews, and pairing sessions that help your team ship cleaner, more maintainable software.

    architecture/reviews/dx

  • Open Source

    Building and maintaining open-source tools, and helping teams publish, document, and support their own projects.

Process

How I work

Do the simple thing first, then iterate. A lightweight process that keeps you informed and keeps momentum high.

  1. 01

    Discover

    A focused conversation to understand the problem, the constraints, and what success looks like for you.

  2. 02

    Prototype

    The simplest thing that could possibly work, in your hands early — so we learn fast and adjust cheaply.

  3. 03

    Build & iterate

    Small, reviewable increments with tests and CI from day one, plus regular, honest check-ins.

  4. 04

    Hand off

    Readable code, clear docs, and a smooth handover — or ongoing support if you'd like to keep going.

About

A developer who lives in the terminal

galtcode is run by a single developer who's obsessed with CLI tools and believes writing software should be fun. The approach is simple: do the simple thing first, iterate, and always prioritize developer experience.

With hands-on experience across TypeScript, Rust, and C#, I focus on tools and systems that solve real problems — without unnecessary complexity. When you work with galtcode, you work directly with the person writing the code.

  • Clean, maintainable code
  • Pragmatic, modern tech choices
  • Direct communication — no middlemen
  • Fast, reliable delivery
