I design and build avionics panels for experimental aircraft, and at night I write software for the games on my shelf. Everything I've finished — or am close to finishing — is below.

About
Who's building thisKyle Carroll
Missouri
Day job: I lay out and build instrument panels for homebuilt airplanes — G3X installs, switch and breaker layouts, plates cut and engraved on my own machines. I'm a private pilot, so I get to be annoyed by bad panel ergonomics from both sides of the firewall.
Nights: C++ and Swift, usually pointed at board games. I own too many of them, and a few are good enough that I wanted a version I could play at midnight without setting up a table.
Almost everything here exists because I wanted it and it didn't, or because the version that did exist annoyed me. If something's useful to you, take it. If it's broken, tell me and I'll fix it.
