Hey, I'm Gabriel.
I'm currently building a modern software agency & product studio @ SkyPorch, and writing about software development, productivity, health, Mandarin Chinese and more.
The latest SkyPorch products in development:
- Attached - Understand your attachment, transform your life
- Unscroll - a Safari extension that removes infinite scroll from social media sites
- dailychinesestories.com - a daily newsletter with a short story in Mandarin Chinese
- lang.surf - a browser extension that allows you to read your favorite websites at your level in Chinese
- langtester.com, a language proficiency quiz using AI (currently for Mandarin Chinese & Spanish). Built alongside CY.
Also developing for the Apple Vision Pro in public:
Previously, I was a:
- Software Lead at Flixed working across our programmatically generated content, API, and R&D teams.
- Lead iOS Developer at Flow.
Here, I regularly publish new blog posts, projects, and singing recordings.
I've also begun hosting visionOS/XR meetups in San Francisco:
