Delmerik / A personal project journal

Built out of
curiosity.

I build software, experiment with a home server, and figure things out along the way. This is where I write it down.

RivalSpy: from player names to match statistics

A Windows utility I built myself, without AI coding assistance, combining screenshot OCR and browser automation to look up Marvel Rivals player statistics.

Hey, I’m Delmerik.

This is my little corner of the internet for the things I build, configure, and get curious about. Some become useful everyday tools. Others are an excuse to learn something new.

Some projects are independent builds; others involve AI assistance. RivalSpy is one I designed and coded myself, without AI. I use AI to help write this journal, while keeping each project’s story grounded in the actual work.
