Software · organizing · building things that last

Peter Boling.

This is a home for the work: software architecture, civic projects, product experiments, and the occasional opinion about how things could be built better.

Software craft

Architecture, maintainability, and shipping clean systems. Mostly Ruby, sometimes SvelteKit, always opinionated.

Civic work

Political research platforms, movement organizing tools, and the technology layer underneath community action.

Product experiments

A portfolio of early-stage product concepts being built across the 9thBit LLC umbrella.

The approach

Leave things better than you found them.

  1. Understand the problem before picking the stack
  2. Build the smallest durable thing
  3. Document and share the reasoning
  4. Compound the lessons over time

The portfolio

Several projects under active development.

From civic research tools to dating platforms with trust economics, the 9thBit LLC portfolio represents a deliberate attempt to build things that matter.
