Lex · Engineering & teaching

I build systems other people can build on.

Programming languages, developer tools, and workspaces for exploring ideas. I build the foundations and the books, guides, and examples that help people use them.

Selected work

Different starting points, with a shared interest in tools people can understand and build on.

How I work

I’m Lex. I like building the foundations behind a useful tool: the language it runs, the rules it follows, and the ways people learn to work with it. Across these projects, I keep coming back to making behavior understandable and giving people control over their own work.

Relurpify is one example of a system for building other systems: it provides the tools and execution rules for creating AI agents. Tyu brings that idea to programming languages, with a compiler, a teaching book, and an optional pipeline for checking mathematical proofs about programs.

These are independent projects. Paid work usually applies the same capabilities to another organization’s problem. I’m interested in both building something useful and helping the people who inherit it understand how it works.

§ 03

Learn & explore

A system is more useful when people can learn it.

Teaching is part of the work. Tyu has a book with practical labs and a browser playground, so you can explore the language and its ideas without starting with a toolchain installation.

Consulting · Employment · Project support

Let's make something useful.

Have a problem that could use this kind of thinking? I'm open to consulting, employment, and support for my independent projects. We can start with what you want to make possible and work out the shape of the engagement together.
