About

One maker. Few projects.
All of them care.

Globy Peaks is the umbrella for the things I build — mostly apps, occasionally tools, always shipped with the kind of restraint that respects the person on the other end of the screen.

  • 01

    Restraint over flash

    If a feature doesn't earn its keep, it doesn't ship.

  • 02

    Native where it matters

    Jetpack Compose, SwiftUI, real platform feel — not a thin wrapper.

  • 03

    Made for use, not demo

    Designed for the hand on the bike, the couch in the dark.

Selected work

Two projects.
Built without compromise.

NuvioTV

Open source · GPL-3.0

A modern media player for Android TV. Built on the Stremio addon ecosystem, designed for the way you actually sit on the couch.

Kotlin Jetpack Compose TV Material3 ExoPlayer / Media3 Hilt Retrofit

The problem

The Android TV media-player landscape is dominated by apps that either look like 2014 or were written for phones first and squeezed onto a 10-foot UI as an afterthought. Stremio's addon ecosystem is rich, but the official clients leave a lot of polish on the table.

The approach

Build a first-class TV client from scratch in Jetpack Compose with TV Material3 — proper focus handling, hero rows, and a playback layer using ExoPlayer/Media3. NuvioTV doesn't host content; it's a clean, fast playback interface on top of user-installed addons.

What I'm proud of

The focus model. D-pad navigation that feels considered, never "good enough." A codebase that's approachable — Hilt for DI, Retrofit for networking, a structure that invites contribution rather than hiding behind framework abstractions.

Wendlore

Closed source

Riding stories at every turn. A motorcycle navigator that picks scenic backroads and tells you the story of the places you pass.

Native iOS Native Android Routing engine Location-triggered audio Offline-first

The problem

Motorcycle navigation apps optimise for the wrong thing — fastest route, biggest highways, smallest text. Riders want the road less travelled, and they want to know why the road is worth riding.

The approach

A custom routing layer that biases toward scenic backroads, paired with a story engine that triggers short, narrated pieces about the places you pass — history, geology, local lore. Built glove-friendly, loud enough through a helmet, fully usable offline.

What I'm proud of

Making the app disappear. The interface gets out of the way so the ride and the story stay in front. Big targets, high contrast, a HUD that reads at a glance — designed in motion, not at a desk.
