Hi,

I’m Peter Volf, SW engineer for many years now with a master's degree in computer science, located in Hungary.

My main professional interest has been Python ever since I first started using it around ~2008. I really enjoy working with React and TypeScript, and doing full-stack application development as well. I'm also interested in Linux and the open-source world in general. At university, I specialized in network/graph analysis and machine learning -- it was a long time ago, it would be great to have the time to pick these up again.

I work mostly on greenfield web projects and -- when my time allows -- I like to do open-source work.

Some of my open source projects:

• localclustering is a local graph clustering algorithm with a graphscraper backend (JOSS publication, analysis).
• fasthx is an HTMX utility for FastAPI.
• htmy is an async rendering engine primarily for HTML and XML, and server-side rendering.
• motorhead is an async "almost-ODM" for MongoDB with vanilla Pydantic v2.
• graphscraper is an SQL graph database with an in-memory cache and a built-in, on-demand web scraper (for research projects).
• uspto-patent-citation-graph is a graphscraper implementation that scrapes the citation graph from USPTO's API (for research projects).
• mastodon-social-graph is a graphscraper implementation that scrapes the social graph of a Mastodon instance (for research projects).
• markyp is an XML templating engine and parser tool.

My recent professional projects:

• Prototyped the new IoT device management portal for SmartNow.
• AIP Clinic and AIP Derm, an AI-assisted digital healthcare service.
• Prototyped the LNGx platform, a modern energy trading hub.
• Horizon Planner, an enterprise resource planning and project management application.

I also tutor engineers, from juniors to seniors, primarily focusing on Python and system architecture/design.

I'm available for consulting and contract work, you can find me on:

• Linkedin
• Mastodon
• GitLab
