Open Source

Kute

On July 18, 2026 I open-sourced Kute a Bubble Tea/Lip Gloss terminal UI for Kubernetes that brings together resources, events, conditions, logs, and describe output into a keyboard-driven incident console.

Kute helps operators quickly answer where something is broken, why it is broken, and what changed, while keeping the cluster’s real state visible, prioritizing unhealthy workloads, showing the exact kubectl equivalent before actions, and supporting fast navigation with seamless namespace switching.

NDB

Way back in 2009 I created a tiny open source Database Access library Ndb Library. It was developed with a test-first development approach in mind and it implements code-centric approach to work with databases. I don’t work on it anymore since Entity Framework team shipped EF Code First as a part of the Entity Framework 4 release.

Ndb Library was designed to work with different database engines, including MySQL, PostgreSQL, SqLite, and Microsoft SQL Server. It was also straightforward to add support for other engines.
