Open-Source Contributions
I contribute to open-source projects like RuneLite and Scrutiny, focusing on usability and feature enhancements. My work includes UI improvements, hotkey functions, and smart overlays—driven by a passion for clean, user-focused design in both gaming and system tools.
As part of my ongoing interest in open-source development, I've contributed to a number of projects, focusing on usability improvements and practical feature additions. Below are a few highlights from my work on RuneLite, a popular client for Old School RuneScape, and Scrutiny, a web-based S.M.A.R.T monitoring tool.
RuneLite – Old School RuneScape Client
I contributed link several quality-of-life improvements and UI enhancements to RuneLite, aimed at improving player experience without altering the core gameplay:
- Sidebar Enhancements: Improved the interface by making the sidebar close button auto-hide when not hovered, creating a cleaner look.
- Skill Progress Bar: Added a visual progress bar to the hi-score panel, making skill tracking more intuitive at a glance.
- Ground Items Visibility Toggle: Implemented a double-tap ALT hotkey function to quickly hide all ground items, with a single tap to reveal them—useful for reducing visual clutter in crowded areas.
- Weak Monster Item Overlay: Developed an overlay that highlights monsters low enough in health to be finished with specific items like Ice coolers or Fungicide spray, helping players optimize item use and combat efficiency.
Scrutiny – Web UI for S.M.A.R.T Monitoring
For Scrutiny link, I focused on improving long-term usability for users managing multiple drives:
- Disk Archiving Support: Added the ability to hide or archive disks within the interface, including backend handlers for archiving/unarchiving and corresponding UI updates to reflect disk status clearly
These contributions reflect my focus on thoughtful, user-oriented design in both gaming and system tools. I enjoy working with active communities and projects that value practical, high-impact improvements.
