I'm Austin, a software engineer in Perth and Founding Engineer at The Next Something.
I build web applications, Rust tools, and graphics you can explore in a browser or terminal.

An interactive black-hole renderer for the web and Rust, with a React component, Ratatui widget, standalone explorers, and Ghostty shader.
Explore ↗ · Source and installation ↗
A website and a native terminal app, built around an interactive ASCII black hole. Shared content and shaders connect the two.

A project environment manager that makes setup explicit: typed configuration, installation plans, lockfiles, and trust checks when your config changes.

Requires Node 22+ and a terminal of at least 60 × 18 characters. Runs on macOS, Linux, and Windows; see the platform requirements for supported versions and architectures.
Use Tab / arrows to navigate, Enter to open, and ? for help. In Explore, move with WASD, IJKL, or mouse dragging. Ctrl-C quits; q also quits outside Explore.
The GPU renderer runs locally and falls back to static artwork if graphics initialization fails. Portfolio content is embedded and works offline after installation; external links need a connection.
