Now & the lab

What I'm building — and testing.

A living studio: this part changes as projects ship and experiments teach me something.

#015Web · Done

Base64 Asset Bloat

Learned: A single embedded image can 30x an HTML file's size — always ship binary assets separately, never inline.

#014Web · Done

P2P Multiplayer for RPS

Learned: Two players who are both online at once barely need a server at all — a direct peer connection is enough.

#013Web · Done

Cipher Machine Simulators

Learned: Rotor-stepping logic is the entire trick to a working Enigma sim — everything else is just UI around it.

#012Web · Done

Icon System Without Images

Learned: Ten hand-built inline SVGs load faster and theme easier than any icon font or image sprite.

#011Web · Done

Offline-First PWA

Learned: A service worker makes "works with no signal" a real, testable claim instead of a nice-to-have.

#010Web · Active

Shared Hosting Quirks

Learned: Free hosts can silently drop oversized files during extraction — always verify what actually made it to the server.

About

Hi, I'm Makan.

I'm MAKAN — I build Android apps and web tools, mostly solo, mostly at night.

I like software that does one thing well: fast to open, honest about what it does, and built without unnecessary dependencies. Most of what's on this site started as a problem I wanted solved for myself first — a conversion I needed, a cipher I wanted to understand, a game I wanted to finish.
