PowerNex is a microkernel operating system written entirely in the Nim programming language. Designed as a learning and research project, it explores OS development using a modern high-level systems language while still offering low-level control. PowerNex focuses on modularity, simplicity, and code clarity. While still in its early stages, the project includes basic kernel functionality, including memory management, task switching, and a custom bootloader, offering insight into building an OS from the ground up using newer programming paradigms.

Stigg | SaaS Monetization and Entitlements API
A monetization platform is a standalone middleware that sits between your application and your business applications, as part of the modern enterprise billing stack. Stigg unifies all the APIs and abstractions billing and platform engineers had to build and maintain in-house otherwise. Acting as your centralized source of truth, with a highly scalable and flexible entitlements management, rolling out any pricing and packaging change is now a self-service, risk-free, exercise.
