这玩意儿是不是不优化就很难用啊。。。
Design · writing · privacy-first tools
A date that does not exist, for the things built in between.
I work where design, writing, and code meet: privacy-first software, visual communication, and source-based research on Chinese history, language, and literature.
My projects usually begin with a practical problem or an overlooked body of material. I build tools that are useful, transparent, and easy to inspect, and I organize research so that it remains readable, verifiable, and open to discussion.
The best interfaces, like the best sentences, are the ones you do not notice.
