Software engineer in LA. Rust, TypeScript, AI infra, Astro/Svelte/Vue full-stack.
Founder/CTO @ Socialaize · Founder @ Black Leaf Digital · zachhandley.com · zach@blackleafdigital.com
- Socialaize — AI-powered social media management. Astro SSR + Vue 3 + Python AI workers, subscription billing, cross-platform scheduling & analytics.
- Staryo — partnerships, payouts, and DMs for the creator economy.
- Black Leaf Digital — agency / consulting since 2019.
- zachhandley.com — this site. Threlte/Svelte 3D scene + Appwrite-backed link CMS on Cloudflare Workers. Source ↗.
- ELID — ELID is based on ULID, except for vector embeddings -- the general idea is, what if we had a way to represent a vector as a sortable hash that was also similar in "closeness" to other ID's on the same dimension, created from embeddings.
- Blazen — Blazen is a workflow/event based orchestration system for agentic flows, but can be used for workflows of any kind.
- FakeNotify — inotify for FS events doesn't work on NFS mounts, and that's annoying, so this emulates them.
- AppwriteUtils ⭐30 — Migrations code for Appwrite.
- ez-i18n ⭐7 — i18n in typescript with SSR support.
- ZAstroWebsockets — A sort-of-fork / side-by-side copy of Astro's Node and Cloudflare (I can do Deno if people request it but I am inherently lazy) SSR runners with WebSocket Server Support.
