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


What I'm shipping

  • Socialaize — AI-powered social media management. Astro SSR + Vue 3 + Python AI workers, subscription billing, cross-platform scheduling & analytics.
  • Black Leaf Digital — agency / consulting since 2019.
  • zachhandley.com — this site. Threlte/Svelte 3D scene + Appwrite-backed link CMS on Cloudflare Workers. Source ↗.

Recent Rust

  • ELID — sortable hash IDs for vector embeddings: ULID-shaped, but the IDs preserve "closeness" so neighbours sort near each other.
  • Blazen — workflow & event-driven orchestration for agentic flows (works for any workflow).
  • FakeNotify — inotify-shaped FS events for NFS mounts, because real inotify doesn't reach there.
  • ZVD — FFmpeg, in Rust.
  • ZSync — central-server file sync platform with SSH key management.
  • Z3Fungi — distributed caching layer for S3.

Open source you might already use

  • AppwriteUtils ⭐30 — migrations + dev-ergonomics toolkit for Appwrite. (Powers this site's schema.)
  • ez-i18n ⭐7 — tiny i18n with first-class SSR.
  • ZAstroWebsockets — Astro Node + Cloudflare SSR adapters with WebSocket server support.
  • ContentShield — multilingual profanity check.
  • amplify-astro-adapter — AWS Amplify adapter for modern Astro (GetEnv + session support).
