The longer version

I'm Sihan Teng (DSSDM). I build things: desktop apps, web tools, and experiments that scratch a real itch. I hope you find them useful. I like the whole path from a rough idea to a thing people can click.

Recent work: croc-desktop, an encrypted peer-to-peer file-transfer app; TenLing, a calm Markdown editor; and llm-translator, a highlight-anywhere translation popup for Linux. The rest is on the project shelf.

This site does three jobs at once: it's the shelf where my projects live, the resume I point people at, and the place I think out loud in writing. If a post or a project is useful to you, that means it worked.
