SuriScope

chrome extension

QA tool right in the browser

Internal Chrome extension I built to make QA teams' lives easier: finding robust CSS/XPath selectors (with a robustness score, iframe and Shadow DOM traversal, visual picker), and inspecting dataLayers and analytics traffic directly from the browser (GA4, GTM, Pixel, Adobe, TikTok).

  • Chrome Extension
  • JavaScript
  • CSS / XPath
  • DOM API
  • Network monitoring

Homelab

running 24/7

Personal production infrastructure

My permanent playground for digging into infra and DevOps: a Proxmox VE hypervisor running a Caddy reverse proxy, monitoring, Proxmox Backup Server + rclone backups to Backblaze, Home Assistant automation, self-hosted apps (personal cloud, media server), VPN and monitoring.

  • Proxmox VE
  • Docker
  • Caddy
  • Home Assistant
  • PBS
  • rclone

Jellyfin extension

side project

Custom plugin for my media center

A small extension to enhance Jellyfin on my homelab. One of those projects you start "just to see" and finish because the need was actually real.

  • Jellyfin SDK
  • JavaScript
