I'm Francesco, a developer from Italy and a Master's student in Computer Science. I build tools for bioinformatics, real-time web apps, and small projects that bring ideas to life.

Thesis work

Libraries for RNA secondary structures, so you can handle file formats without the headache.

RNA2DUnifier

Unifies the outputs of different RNA secondary structure tools into the BPSeq format.

  • Bioinformatics
  • BPSeq

RNA2DFormatIO

Converts RNA secondary structures to and from multiple formats through a clean I/O interface.

  • Bioinformatics
  • CT
  • DB
  • BPSeq

Used by real people

Sites and apps that are online and in daily use.

A complete ordering system for a smash burger restaurant.

  • Customers order for delivery or pickup.
  • The menu lives in Notion and orders land straight in a Notion database.
  • Notion API
  • Ordering

Mariani

Online

A clean, performance-focused landing page for a calisthenics athlete, showcasing skills and achievements.

Side projects

Things I build to try out an idea or a technology.

An infinite whiteboard with real-time peer-to-peer collaboration.

  • Pen, shapes, arrows, text, selection, undo and redo, PNG and JSON export.
  • Share a whole board through a link, compressed in the URL with no server.
  • Collaborate live over WebRTC, with named cursors.
  • Next.js
  • Canvas 2D
  • WebRTC

Manhunt

Outdoor hide-and-seek played straight from the browser, no app to install.

  • Periodic location pings reveal hiders to seekers on a map, with a push notification before each ping.
  • Server-authoritative game logic on Supabase, running entirely on free tiers.
  • Supabase
  • Edge Functions
  • Postgres

Flip Ledger

Work in progress

A local-first app for video game flipping: know your real profit on every item, even when bought in a lot.

  • Inventory, lots with cost distribution, sales, expenses and a dashboard, with data kept in the browser.
  • Optional cloud sync and sharing.
  • IndexedDB
  • Supabase
  • Stripe
  • Cloudflare Pages

What I'm up to

Live from my computer: how long I've been at it and what's on screen. Only app names and times, never what's inside them.
