Big Online Projects

Basketball GM - Basketball simulation video game. It's written entirely in client-side JavaScript and you can play it right in your web browser.

Football GM - Similer to Basketball GM.

ZenGM Hockey - Similer to Basketball GM and Football GM.

ZenGM Baseball - Similer to Basketball GM, Football GM, and ZenGM Hockey.

Avatic - Various web stuff I made back in the early 2000s. Largely defunct or abandoned.

Mini Online Projects

The Universal Draft Lottery Simulator - This is my draft lottery simulation code from Basketball GM, extracted into a standalone app. It can be fun to play around with different lottery settings, and people running fantasy sports leagues might find it useful for making a custom lottery.

faces.js - A JavaScript library that generates and displays cartoon faces as SVGs, somewhat reminiscent of how the Nintendo Wii generates random Miis. It used to be quite ugly, but after getting help from some more artistically talented contributors, now it's pretty good looking. I wrote it for Basketball GM, but now it's used in several other video games and other projects as well.

Screw - Alter the pitch and tempo of MP3s.

CSV SQL Live - Run SQL queries on CSV files in your web browser.

SAS7BDAT Web Viewer - Open SAS files in your web browser. Because you always wanted to do that, right?

fakeIndexedDB - A pure JS in-memory implementation of the IndexedDB API.

promise-worker-bi - Promise-based messaging for Web Workers and Shared Workers.

Vote and Die - Are you more likely to cast a meaningful vote or die in an accident on your way to the polling both? Find out!

Flockas - No description would suffice.

Barbarian Conquest - Minigame built on a partial web-based port of Civilization 4. I built this mainly to play around with TypeScript, but it's not horrible.

Interactive HRV Figures - Reproduce results from one of my papers in your web browser.
