I'm a software developer based in the state of São Paulo, Brazil.

I like to explore weird or unusual problems, and work on them for a long time.

I also enjoy more mundane typical work such as developing backend and frontend software for the web.

Read my blog: https://alganet.github.io/blog.html

• quick-beats is a resposive drum machine webapp. You can see it live here.
• spiral is a visual exploration of prime number density and patterns. You can browse it here.
• lint-http is an experimental linter for HTTP that works as a proxy in Rust.
• apywire explores the intersection of dependency injection and declarative configuration for Python.
• phasm bundles PHP for WASM to run it directly in browsers. See a demo here.

I'm working on shell-versions, shell-docs and coral. Those three projects explore the portable shell from different angles:

• shell-versions: Aims to provide a solid environment for testing portable shell scripts.
• shell-docs: An MDN-docs style project to deeply document shell interpreter differences and compatibility.
• coral: A reusable, unified portable shell library.

This work goes back several years to my first entry in this problem, workshop.

I also did a C compiler that produces x64 linux binaries in pure shell, to exercise portability in complex programs.

One of my key interests is developing more awareness and examples of practical polyglot programming.

• neutrino: a super-lightweight Electron alternative that is written as a polyglot script.
• PHL: a refactor of an older PHP-compatible engine that explores polyglot build systems.

My previous work on this arena goes back years to AppPackPrototype and small polyglot launchers.

I'm actively maintaining Respect, a set of reusable libraries for PHP.

These libraries approach lots of declarative programming, functional programming and other unconventional PHP applications from a practical perspective.

Out of these, Respect\Validation has gained considerable attention over the years.
