Archive experiment
Earlier or lower-priority work kept visible as part of the evolution trail.
Tawsif / Personal Dev Lab
I build weirdly practical software for daily life, Linux setups, and internet subcultures.
This portfolio is a live lab log, not a project cemetery. Each panel traces what I built, why I cared, and how the work evolved from quick experiments into tools I still return to.

Active experiments
The current signal
A compact view of the repos that best explain the range of the lab right now.
Media system
Starlight Anime Hub
Retro interface, modern scraping guts.
A deliberately styled anime downloading site that rejects generic streaming-site aesthetics.
Product build
Finance Flow
Budget tracking without spreadsheet fatigue.
A personal finance tracker that turns daily budgeting into a clean, product-shaped ritual.
Linux workflow
Arch i3 Setup
Infrastructure as a personal bootstrap ritual.
An automated Arch Linux setup script for rebuilding a complete i3 environment without redoing every step by hand.
System map
What the work clusters around
The portfolio is organized by recurring obsessions instead of resume categories.
Linux workflow
Shell scripts, desktop automation, and environment tooling built from lived setup friction.
Language tool
Utilities built around text entry, language handling, and broader accessibility.
Media system
Projects where scraping, downloading, and interface taste collide.
Product build
Projects shaped like products with daily-use workflows and cleaner user-facing decisions.
Web utility
Narrow tools built to solve a very specific annoying task in as few steps as possible.
Featured dossiers
Six projects worth opening first
Each one solves a different kind of problem: interface, automation, utility, infrastructure, or pure obsession.
Media system
Starlight Anime Hub
Retro interface, modern scraping guts.
A deliberately styled anime downloading site that rejects generic streaming-site aesthetics.
Product build
Finance Flow
Budget tracking without spreadsheet fatigue.
A personal finance tracker that turns daily budgeting into a clean, product-shaped ritual.
Linux workflow
Arch i3 Setup
Infrastructure as a personal bootstrap ritual.
An automated Arch Linux setup script for rebuilding a complete i3 environment without redoing every step by hand.
Web utility
GitZip
One folder, no clone, no nonsense.
A web utility for downloading a single folder from a git repository without pulling the entire repo.
Language tool
Bangla Typing
A focused language utility with a live web surface.
A typing-oriented utility project that broadens the portfolio beyond Linux and anime-heavy work.
Build notes
I prefer software that feels handmade, specific, and mildly stubborn.
The lab format exists because a normal portfolio flattens everything into the same card shape. That hides the real difference between a budget tracker, a retro anime site, and a shell script that rewires a desktop workflow.
Here the repos are organized by intent and signal, with enough context to show the thinking behind the output.
