My name is Warren. I'm 54 years old. I live alone in Durban, South Africa, in the house where I once shared meals with my wife Marilyn, my mother Zenda and my father Eugene. They are all gone now. Marilyn left this world five years ago. My parents before her. For a long time, I didn't know what to do with the silence they left behind.
My mother taught Grade‑R children for 52 years. Her preschool, "Little Sweet Peas," shaped thousands of young minds. My father was a quiet, honest man who taught me that your word is your worth. My wife was the light in every room she entered. When I lost them, I lost my compass.
I don't have a job. I don't have a bank account. Some days I don't have food. But I have a son who just turned 18 and he dreams of becoming a chef. I have a computer! So I build software – free tools that I designed to help other developers – because it's the only thing I know how to do that might one day put food on his table and keep their memory alive.
I built RepoCraft, a Windows app that lets you go from zero to a fully‑pushed GitHub repository in 60 seconds. No command line. No friction. I built Genesis Engine, a secure AI assistant framework that runs on free‑tier cloud services so anyone, anywhere, can have their own AI. I built The Eternal Protocol, a digital heirloom that lets you leave time‑locked messages, voice recordings and encrypted memories for the people you love.
All of it is free. Truly free. I host it on Neocities, a platform that gives me 50 GB of space without asking for a credit card. I mirror my code on Codeberg, a non‑profit community‑governed Git forge in Europe. I use free AI services like Groq and Puter to add intelligence and cloud storage. I've built an entire ecosystem without spending a single cent – because I don't have a cent to spend.
People sometimes ask: "Why don't you charge for this?" The truth is, I'm trying to figure out how to survive while keeping the tools free. I've added a premium template pack on Ko‑fi. I've added sponsor buttons on every page. I've applied for grants that support free software but the real answer is that I believe software should belong to everyone – not just the people who can afford it.
The world is full of $379 courses promising to teach you "vibe coding." My tools do the same thing, for free, forever. Why? Mainly because I remember what it felt like to have nothing and to need someone to just open a door.
If you've ever struggled with project setup, or if you've ever wished you could leave a message for someone you love that would survive you, I built these tools for you. If they help you and you're in a position to buy me a coffee, please do! Every cup helps me to keep building. Every cup feeds my son's dream.
"What we build together lives forever…"
