Olivier Banville
I build the software behind research data at Université Laval, and a small fleet of self-hosted apps at home.
Now
- Building data catalogues and metadata services for genomics research at Genovalia.
- Rebuilding Astronav, my space game, in Haxe and Heaps.
- Writing this website.
Selected projects
Knowledge
My personal memory as a typed graph, with a web app, a REST API and an MCP server so AI assistants can read and write it.
Astromech
Homelab automation where every script is approved by me and runs in a sandbox that holds no secrets and has no network.
Homelab
The machines in my basement and the repo that runs them, a Docker Swarm with a private registry, push-to-deploy, backups and a shared design system.
Astronav
A solo space trading and combat game. You are the only person aboard a four-deck, cassette-punk ship, and every choice at the controls changes what your body can do.
