I'm HalxDocs — backend engineer building in Go. I build tools I need and tools others need too then ship them. Open to freelance and contract work in APIs, SaaS backends, and dev tools.
Shipped more than a few this year. Here are 3:
reqit — a local-first, git-native API client. Built in Go + Wails + React. HTTP, REST, GraphQL, SSE, WebSockets, mTLS client auth, collection runner, mock server, BYOK AI layer. Postman, but yours. 500+ downloads so far.
DLQ Inspector — Go CLI for inspecting, patching, and safely replaying failed messages stuck in dead-letter queues. RabbitMQ + Redis Streams now, Kafka/SQS next. Dry-run by default because I don't trust bulk replays, including my own.
274Lab — JAMB/UTME exam prep platform for Nigerian students. React + Firebase. Timed quizzes, weak-topic detection, leaderboards, ₦800 subscription. Working on scaling it for exam-day traffic spikes.
Three different problems, one thread: build the tool you wish existed, then ship it.
More coming.
Nah it's

I've been learning Raft in Go to understand how distributed systems handle consensus, leader election, and node failures.
I wrote about what I've learned and how the project is helping me grow as a developer.

One short "anyone hiring for backend?" post got me the most useful conversation of my week.
@boardyai connected me with someone worth talking to. Might turn into a call.
Still open to Go backend roles or contract work, 3.5 years in.
halxdocs.com
Day 9 of @boardyai's 30 Days. It ran its network against all four of my lanes and came back with nothing.
So I'm writing to people directly now. Go backend roles or contract work, 3.5+ years.
If you're hiring: halxdocs.com
