- One cohesive shell across desktop, iOS, and Fire TV, no third-party launchers
- ~43K-line single-file hub with a cinematic, per-vertical design system
- Live finance, music scrobbling, watch history, and recommendations, all per-profile
Flash Media Hub (“Flashpoint”) is the most ambitious thing I’ve built and my daily driver. It collapses a dozen separate apps (streaming, music, books, comics and manga, live NBA / WNBA / CDL, news, an AI tutor, and personal finance) into a single, cohesive, cinematic environment that runs on the desktop (Electron), iOS (React Native), and a native Fire TV client (Compose).
What makes it hard
- One design language across three runtimes. A per-vertical color identity and motif system keeps every section feeling like its own “world” while staying part of one app.
- Real data, never faked. Counts, durations, and progress are wired to real sources or omitted, a hard guardrail throughout the codebase.
- Production plumbing. A Python HTTP server streams cached audio, proxies APIs, and gates owner-only finance endpoints (Plaid) behind signed sessions.
Private repo. It contains scrapers and live financial plumbing, so it ships as a curated case study with sanitized screens, not a public link.
