phillips-jon/README.md

Hey, I’m Jon.

I’ve been building on the web for a long time, mostly product work where design and code overlap. I'm currently a senior web developer at https://rdelgroup.com/ and https://craftandcrew.ca/ and a serial builder of side projects and open source software

Projects

I build and ship projects across SaaS, content, and tooling.

  • https://activebuilders.dev
    A private community for people who ship. If you're shipping work (or trying to), come hang out.

  • https://runlight.sh
    Privacy-friendly open-source analytics for people who’d rather own their data than rent someone else’s dashboard.

  • https://cronwatch.dev
    An open-source library that watches your scheduled jobs and alerts you when one is late, fails, or never runs.

  • https://dailytips.dev
    A 5-minute daily read on decisions, logic, distribution, and the thinking that turns code into products.

  • https://preflight.sh
    An open-source CLI tool that catches common misconfigurations and deployment issues before they go live.

  • https://emailgrowthguide.com
    The playbook for launching, growing, and monetizing your email newsletter.

  • https://hprfcl.com
    Easily create Lightroom and Photoshop ACR presets and LUTs from natural language and reference images.

  • https://autochangelog.com
    Automatically generates clean, public changelogs from pull requests, code diffs, and commits.

  • https://dailyphototips.com
    Short, practical, and actionable photography tips delivered to your inbox daily.

  • https://thedailypreset.com
    One Lightroom preset delivered every weekday, built for real photos and real workflows.

  • https://distributionkit.com
    Launch smarter. 145+ platforms and directories to get your product in front of the right people.

  • https://www.bestaithings.com
    Best AI things for everything. Discover and compare the most powerful AI tools to enhance your workflow.

Previously, I worked on monetization, infrastructure, and developer-facing tools at https://buysellads.com/ for 15 years.

How I build

I don’t get attached to stacks, but I do care about shipping, maintainability, and not creating problems for future me.

I often work with Rails, Hotwire, Stimulus, Tailwind, Alpine, Craft CMS, React, Vite, and Next.js, plus whatever else fits the project.

The tech is a tool, the product is the point.

Writing

I believe strongly in email and building audiences you can actually reach.

I write about building products, logic, UX, distribution, and long-term thinking at: https://joncphillips.com

I’m also on socials:
