Scientific Software 🎢

I love exploring physical concepts through computation, including Julia and Python code. My focus for the last three years of open-source hobby projects has been astrodynamics. At my highest aspiration, I want to create an ecosystem of packages that helps students to explore the solar system without having to learn complicated interfaces! I've also dabbled in other small projects: see my in-development experimental Python package manager, CommonLicenses.jl, and my other unpinned projects!

Brief Portfolio

Astrodynamics

GeneralAstrodynamics.jl is the largest open source software project I have created. It contains graduate astrodynamics research codes which find halo orbits, and invariant manifolds about those orbits, throughout the solar system. I am working to break this larger package into constituent parts, including AstrodynamicalModels.jl and AstrodynamicalCalculations.jl. In the future, I hope to add hooks into ephemeris fetching & parsing packages that I have published: SPICEKernels.jl, SPICEBodies.jl, HorizonsAPI.jl, and HorizonsEphemeris.jl.

Developer Tools

Julia's pakage manager allows users to simply replicate environments without much effort. Python is an older language with older package distribution infrastructure. Can Julia's easily-replicatable environments be adapted to Python? Possibly! I'm trying some ideas out in dimples.

See also opinionated (and a bit cursed) namespace hygiene and scoping within module-hygiene and block-scopes, and Markdown-like admonition blocks (in the style of Julia's in-terminal admonition blocks) in rich-admonitions.

When you write open-source computational documents in Julia, consider CommonLicenses.jl! This package allows you to easily paste license contents inline, without working about links or manually pasting license text.

Forward Work

In the coming years, I hope to continue exploring physical concepts through computation with Julia and Python. Along the way, I'll release any potentially useful substantial pieces of code as open source software.
