I've been a programmer for longer than I've been a professional
programmer. And most of the stuff I've produced as a professional is
sadly not available to share.

That said, some stuff is just from me, unprofessionally. Not all of
that is *worth* sharing, mind you, and even less survived the ravages
of time. Still, here's some stuff.

  - [Zombie Protagonist](/stuff/zombie_protagonist.html) - My first (and
    thusfar only) flash game, where you are a person trying to save
    people from zombies. Possibly influenced by [Shaun of the
    Dead](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shaun_of_the_Dead).

  - [tabular_cleanse.py](https://github.com/jmelesky/tabular_cleanse) - 
    A very simple, niche-use, but incredibly-handy-if-you-need-it
    script for turning tabs into spaces in a way that conforms to the
    Python whitespace standard.

  - [My personal slideshow
    builder](https://github.com/jmelesky/slidemaker) - This was my
    go-to for conference presentations for years. Conference computers
    always had a web browser available, and this was much
    lighter-weight than any of the other html-based slideshow kits at
    the time.

I'll add more stuff to this list as I dust things off.
