FL Fodie Labs

Fodie Labs

Apps, systems, and automation with a working spine.

Fodie Labs builds and operates a mix of consumer apps, internal tools, game prototypes, and self-hosted infrastructure. The common thread is practical software that solves a real workflow instead of performing a demo.

01

Mobile products

Flutter apps with real state management, device features, and paid product paths.

02

Backend systems

Python and .NET services, auth flows, async data layers, and task-oriented APIs.

03

Ops and automation

Self-hosted tooling, bots, media workflows, alerts, and maintenance automation.

What Fodie Labs Builds

The portfolio is small on purpose and spread across the problems worth owning end to end.

Mobile apps

Android-first and cross-platform app work using Flutter, with attention to retention, subscriptions, and usable daily workflows.

Product backends

APIs, auth, persistence, and admin surfaces that support real products instead of landing pages pretending to be products.

Operational systems

Automations, bots, server-side maintenance, and self-hosted infrastructure for environments that need to stay useful over time.

What Ships Here

Public-facing summary, grounded in the stack rather than private project names.

Mobile applications

Flutter product work

Cross-platform and Android-first app development using Flutter, Riverpod, BLoC, routing, local storage, notifications, and device-aware user flows.

AI-assisted features

ML and generative tooling

Applied AI work with Firebase-backed apps, image analysis, generative integrations, camera pipelines, and subscription-aware consumer product flows.

Backend systems

Python API platforms

Service development with FastAPI, Uvicorn, async SQLAlchemy, Alembic migrations, auth layers, Jinja-rendered surfaces, test scaffolds, and containerized deployment.

Game and interactive work

Unity-based development

Interactive projects built with Unity 2D, animation pipelines, tilemaps, URP, timeline tooling, and production-focused package and input-system workflows.

Automation and operations

Self-hosted systems

Operational software built around Docker, nginx, Ubuntu, bots, monitoring, background jobs, service orchestration, and practical maintenance automation.

Systems tooling

.NET and PowerShell utilities

Internal and experimental tooling built with .NET, PowerShell-hosted execution, utility abstractions, and infrastructure-facing command workflows.

Working Style

Real products tend to cross layers, so the work does too.

Own the stack

Frontend, backend, infrastructure, automation, and deployment decisions are treated as part of one system, not separate theater departments.

Build from live constraints

The product shape comes from actual users, household workflows, server limits, app store realities, and maintenance cost, not abstract startup folklore.

Keep it operable

If it ships, it also needs to be supportable. Monitoring, migrations, backups, and maintenance paths matter as much as the interface.

Core Stack

Technologies in active use across the current Fodie Labs portfolio.

Mobile and client

Flutter, Riverpod, BLoC, Go Router, Hive, Firebase, camera flows, image handling, subscriptions, notifications, and health-connected app features.

Backend and APIs

Python, FastAPI, Uvicorn, async SQLAlchemy, Alembic, Authlib, Jinja, HTTP integrations, SQLite/Postgres-oriented data models, and test-driven service scaffolds.

Games and tooling

Unity 2D, URP, timeline, tilemaps, input system, .NET solutions, PowerShell-hosted execution, and custom utilities for building and operating weird little systems.

Infrastructure and ops

Docker, nginx, Ubuntu hosting, Discord bots, media-service automation, cron and systemd jobs, and practical self-hosted maintenance workflows.

Contact

Want to build something useful or untangle something messy?

Fodie Labs is best suited to product prototypes, automation-heavy workflows, internal tools, and software that needs one person to understand the whole stack.
