Hi there ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿป I'm Jerwin (@jackwander)

Full-Stack Developer โ€ข Homelab Enthusiast โ€ข Open-Source Builder

Profile Views GitHub Followers GitHub Stars

I'm a developer who enjoys building practical tools, experimenting with new technologies, and sharing what I learn along the way.

By day, I develop modern web applications that solve real-world problems in areas like healthcare systems, data management, and automation. By night, I'm usually experimenting in my home lab, building tools for the self-hosted and developer community.

I enjoy turning ideas into working systems, especially projects that make workflows faster, infrastructure smarter, or data easier to understand.


๐Ÿ‘จ๐Ÿปโ€๐Ÿ’ป What I Do

๐Ÿ’ป Web Development

I build modern web applications using Laravel, Vue.js, and JavaScript, focusing on scalable systems, maintainable architecture, and developer-friendly workflows.

๐Ÿ–ฅ๏ธ Homelab & Self-Hosting

I run a home lab powered by Proxmox, Docker, and Linux, where I experiment with infrastructure, automation, and self-hosted services.

๐Ÿค– Experimentation & AI

I enjoy exploring emerging technologies such as AI-assisted development, face recognition, computer vision, and cross-platform mobile apps using Ionic.

๐Ÿ“ฆ Open Source

I build packages, plugins, and developer tools that reduce repetitive work and help developers and self-hosters build faster.


๐Ÿš€ Featured Projects

A plugin for Jellyfin that helps data hoarders manage their serverโ€™s "afterlife."

Features include:

  • Tracking unwatched media
  • Monitoring real-time playback activity
  • Detecting inactive or abandoned content
  • Automatically generating "Leaving Soon" collections

Designed to help media server owners reclaim terabytes of unused storage while understanding how their libraries are actually used.


A Laravel package that helps developers instantly generate modular boilerplate for large applications.

It keeps projects clean, organized, and scalable by encouraging modular architecture and reducing repetitive setup work.


๐Ÿ› ๏ธ Languages & Tools

  • Backend: PHP, Laravel, C# (.NET)
  • CMS: Drupal
  • Frontend: JavaScript, Vue.js, HTML/CSS, Ionic
