My name is Adrian O'Grady and one day I'll make this page pretty. In the mean time, here are a few things I've been working on for fun.
A DCC server for model railways that allows for layout control via a web browser.
You can try a demo version of it here.

Core utilities for defining class and namespace in JavaScript. Also provides a basic dependency injection framework so that I can better modularise and test my code.
My own rendering library. In addtion to drawing tools, it manages frame and tick updates as well as providing an asset loader and an extended maths library.

A visualisation of using A* for path finding.
