What I'm building: Codebrew is an AI-powered development workflow tool that aims to automate ticket management, code reviews, and time tracking. It's part of a planned ecosystem alongside two other tools I've been developing: Pyrite (real-time collaboration) and Expressio (i18n automation).
Current status:
• Expressio: Working alpha (https://codeberg.org/garage44/workspace/src/branch/main/pack...) - Automatic i18n with DeepL - Built with Bun - Already being used in small projects
• Pyrite: Being refactored - Moving from Vue to Preact - Real-time collaboration platform - Built on Galène SFU
• Codebrew: Early development - Integrating Claude for ticket refinement - Building Wakapi integration for time tracking - Planning GitHub/GitLab/Forgejo integrations
Tech stack:
• Backend: Bun/Node.js
• Frontend: Preact
• AI: Claude/Anthropic
• All open-source under MIT license
Why I'm building this: As a solo developer, I found myself spending too much time on routine tasks. While there are many great tools out there, they often feel disconnected or too complex for smaller teams. I'm aiming for something that's both powerful and lightweight.
The vision:
1. Keep each tool useful on its own
2. Build toward optional integration (project name: Nexus)
3. Focus on developer experience and automation
4. Stay open-source while building sustainable features
Looking for:
• Feedback on the architecture and approach
• Potential early adopters/testers
• Contributors interested in any of the components
• Thoughts on what features would be most valuable

I know it's early days, but I believe in building in public and would love to hear your thoughts, especially from developers who've faced similar challenges in their workflows.
