Hi, I'm Lan 👋

Open-source builder · Full-stack developer · Local-first software

I build local-first and self-hosted tools for AI workflows, developer productivity, and everyday problems.

用代码把真实需求变成简单、可靠、可持续维护的产品。

About me

• 🧰 I turn repetitive workflows into focused open-source products.
• 🖥️ I'm currently building PI-Desktop, a local-first desktop app for AI coding agents.
• 🎧 I'm also building BokeBox, a private multi-source AI podcast studio for turning videos, links, articles, and notes into spoken episodes.
• 🔭 I'm building Orbit Browser, a local-first control plane for browser automation and AI agents.
• 📦 I created FileCodeBox, a lightweight way to share files and text with a passcode.
• 🌱 My current interests include developer tools, self-hosted software, private AI apps, browser automation, and agent infrastructure.
• 🤝 Issues, pull requests, product feedback, and technical conversations are always welcome.

Selected projects

PI-Desktop

A local-first desktop app for AI coding agents. Bring your own models, review file edits and shell commands, and keep sessions, settings, and API keys on your machine.

TypeScript · React · Electron · Rust · SQLite

Source code · Releases · 简体中文

BokeBox

A private multi-source AI podcast studio. Drop in videos, links, articles, meeting notes, or drafts — BokeBox rewrites them into spoken scripts, voices them with a persona you own, and turns them into personal episodes with flashcards. Self-hosted, MCP-ready, and plugin-extensible.

TypeScript · Node.js · pnpm · MCP · Docker · LGPL-3.0

Source code · Project site

FileCodeBox

A lightweight, self-hosted file and text sharing service. Upload content, generate a passcode, and let recipients retrieve it without creating an account — like picking up a package from a locker.
