Notes from the code side.
Software work, technical writeups, systems thinking, lessons learned, and the kinds of fixes or ideas that would otherwise disappear into commit history.

I’m Josh, though most people online know me as Citricguy. This site is more of a log than a blog. It’s where I keep track of software work, systems problems, projects, 3D printing detours, electronics, experiments, and the occasional thing that seemed useful enough to write down before I forgot how I solved it.

Projects, 3D printing, electronics, automation, design, prototypes, and hands-on experiments that are easier to understand once they've been built, broken, and adjusted a few times.

Released albums, fixed-order mixtapes, and future playlists that collect studio tracks into something slightly more intentional.

We still cannot believe they let us release an album, so we did the responsible thing: immediately became a repeat offender.

A short release note for the first official-ish citricguy album, created through a highly normal amount of effort to improve car shuffle.

Workshop3D Printing
Notes from helping with Pukalani Elementary's after-school 3D printing group and watching a room full of kids take design, printing, and problem-solving more seriously than most adults would expect.

Browser AI tools are making small page-specific scripts easier to use, and the old bookmarklet mindset is suddenly useful again.
Work, occasionally
I also take on select consulting and project-based work from time to time, usually around web systems, integrations, data, technical problem-solving, and the kinds of messy practical issues that benefit from experience and some judgment.
I'm most interested in good problems and good people. The rest is usually easier to figure out.
