Boaz Cohen, student developer.

I build software I actually use, then ship it so other people can use it too: installers, auto-updates, docs, CI and an FAQ, not demos. Mostly TypeScript, C# and Python.

OutageLog

Logs every internet drop and turns it into a report that shows whether each outage was your Wi-Fi or your provider's line, so "everything looks fine on our end" stops working.

fish — ~/projects/gmail-to-contacts (main)

› fetch gmail-to-contacts

gmail-to-contacts

Watches Gmail for emails that match your rules, pulls out names and phone numbers, and saves them as Google Contacts. I built it to stop retyping signup emails by hand, then made it configurable for anyone.

› cat HOW_IT_WORKS

  1. Searches Gmail with a query you choose
  2. Matches each email against your rules, first match wins
  3. Extracts fields from labels like First name: Dana or with regex
  4. Creates contacts from templates such as {first_name} {last_name} (Acme)
  5. Marks the email read and records it, so it never creates a contact twice
