TechJano · The tools I built to keep learning

The tools I built to teach myself this craft.

I'm a solo developer who taught himself to code, so I built my own tools to learn faster and ship without cutting corners. These aren't products for sale — they're how one superintendent-turned-builder keeps getting better, one project at a time. I lean on AI the way I'd lean on any good tool: to learn the craft, never to replace the learning.

tonka-orchestrator

Scaffolds and iterates these apps across a constellation of models — local qwen on a Mac, Apple Foundation Models on device, and Claude — with a pre-flight discipline that classifies and routes each task before any code is written.

  • Multi-LLM
  • Ollama / qwen
  • Apple FoundationModels
  • Claude
Internal system

jano-field-photo-report

Turns field photos of a construction defect into a professional diagnostic report — color-coded markup, labeled diagrams, root-cause analysis, a remediation plan, and a multi-page PDF, keyed to CSI MasterFormat divisions.

  • Vision
  • Annotation
  • PDF
  • CSI MasterFormat
Internal system

ios-swift-build

A reusable build playbook for native iOS — XcodeGen and xcodebuild, Swift 6 concurrency defaults, offline-first persistence patterns, privacy manifests, and signing through to TestFlight. The spine under every iOS app here.

  • XcodeGen
  • Swift 6
  • Offline-first
  • TestFlight
Internal system

dispatch-and-grade

Delegates batches of work to sub-models, auto-grades the output, and keeps a scorecard per model and task type — so routing decisions get better with evidence instead of guesswork.

  • Routing
  • Auto-grading
  • Scorecards
Internal system

DocForge

A local document engine that turns structured content and a chosen look into a graded, standards-clean PDF — resumes, reports, one-pagers, decks — on a Typst typesetting spine, with a Chrome design lane and a quality-floor grader that won't let a sloppy document out the door.

About

From the field to the App Store.

Terrence J. Kostelny

I'm Terrence J. Kostelny. For 15 years I was a construction superintendent — running multi-million-dollar jobs where a missed detail costs real money and a missed safety call costs more. I build software the way I ran a site: offline-first, brand-cohesive, and held to the highest quality-control standard.

JANO Field came first — field intelligence for the people I used to work beside. TechJano is the studio it grew into. Since then I've shipped across construction (Dig It, InspectorGadget), consumer apps (MomWon — free forever, built for my mom), and social impact — Haven, born at Urban Peak's youth shelter, for the kids who haven't had a fair shake.

I'm a solo developer. I taught myself the programming languages these are built in, one project at a time, and I work to stay humble and teachable — there's no big team and no AI doing the work for me, just me learning the craft and the tools above that I built to learn it faster. Every product here is offline-first, privacy-respecting, and made to be used where it matters: a real jobsite, a kitchen table, or a kid's wrist.

  • 15 years in the field
  • 8 apps in testing
  • 4 market sectors
  • Offline-first, every one
