Small Hours
A quieter place to collect the things you want to come back to. An experiment in making a useful tool feel a little less busy.
Design, development, and learning along the way.

Nathan Jackson.
I’m a software engineer with 7+ years of professional experience building customer-facing APIs, distributed services, and data-rich products.
I work with product teams to take ideas through to production. Along the way, I’ve led complex migrations, improved reliability, and built tools for other engineers.
Away from work, I build around questions that interest me and problems I’ve run into myself. This is a home for that work.
Selected projects
A few things to exploreExample projects and descriptions for now. The real stories will follow.
A Little Playground
Small interactions with no particular destination. A collection of playful ideas about movement, colour, and what happens when you click.
Built for the pleasure of figuring something out.

A simple home for loose thoughts and unfinished ideas. Exploring how much you can take away while leaving everything you need.
An ongoing exercise in keeping things simple.

Curiosity is a good starting point.
This is where a little more about me will go. The things I enjoy building, what I’m learning, and the ideas I keep coming back to.
For now, think of this page as a work in progress. A small space that can grow as the projects do.
