Layer-10

Software / Systems / Experiments

Beyond
the stack.

A personal software environment for systems, experiments and ideas. Built with care, run like production.

01

Build

Experiments and tools, made properly: tested, versioned and reviewed before they ship.

02

Deploy

Every app gets its own address on layer-10.dev, isolated from the others, behind one gate.

03

Explore

Ideas without limits. Some become products, some become lessons. Both are worth having.

Layer X

Seven layers carry the packets. The tenth carries the care.

Every network engineer knows the joke: layer eight is the user, layer nine is the politics. Layer ten is the part no protocol specifies. The extra pass. The detail nobody asked for. Design that refuses to stop at enough.

Chapter 02

The next idea goes here.

Every project gets its own space to be built, broken and refined before it meets anyone else.

your-next-idea.layer-10.dev

The structure

Built like a cathedral. Run like a data centre.

Three levels, each with its own job. Public where it should be, private where it matters, and every app sealed off from the next.

  1. The façade layer-10.com

    Public. What Layer 10 is and what lives inside. You are here.

  2. The nave layer-10.dev

    The private portal. Cloudflare Access checks who you are at the edge, before a single byte of an app is served.

  3. The chapels app.layer-10.dev

    One subdomain per app: its own origin, cookies and deploys. A fault in one chapel never reaches another.

Why Layer 10

A sanctuary for building.

A personal sandbox to explore ideas and put apps through their paces before they meet a customer. Modern engineering, given the patience of older craft: dark, structured, gilded where it counts.
