Featured Open Source Projects

These projects represent my passion for building foundational, user-empowering open-source software. They are conceived, architected, and developed under the umbrella of my company, acrion innovations GmbH.

Ditana GNU/Linux

Architecting an Enterprise-Grade Operating System

A secure, highly configurable Linux distribution for developers, featuring a custom installer and a global repository infrastructure. I architected the entire ecosystem, from the Raku-based installer to a modular package management system.

Technologies: Raku, Ansible, ZFS, Linux Kernel, CI/CD.

Cbeam & nexuslua

A Modern Concurrency Framework for C++ and Lua

A high-performance C++ library for concurrency, paired with a Lua extension that enables true hardware multithreading. I designed the innovative shared-memory approach and the multi-core extension for Lua.

Technologies: C++17, Concurrency, IPC, Lua, CMake.

Taming Big Data with a Semantic Network

A system that processes the entire 1.4 TB Wikidata dataset in just 9.2 GB of RAM. I developed a novel architecture where relationships are first-class nodes, enabling sophisticated meta-reasoning and contradiction detection.

Technologies: C++, Semantic Networks, Big Data, Inference Systems.

An Asynchronous, Plugin-Driven Image Editor

A Qt desktop application for image processing built on a powerful, asynchronous plugin system. The architecture keeps the UI responsive by offloading all heavy lifting—from I/O to interactive tools—to non-blocking Lua plugins.

Technologies: Qt, C++, Lua, nexuslua, CMake.

A common misconception about Open Source is that it’s only for hobbyists. In reality, professionally managed Open Source offers immense value to commercial enterprises. To facilitate this, my projects are available under a dual-license model:

  1. AGPL 3.0+ License: You are free to use, modify, and distribute the software, provided you comply with the terms of the AGPL, which includes making the source code of your derivative works available.
  2. Commercial License: If the AGPL is not suitable for your proprietary application, you can purchase a commercial license. This allows you to integrate the software into your closed-source products without the obligation to publish your own source code.

This dual-license approach promotes the adoption of Open Source software in commercial environments while ensuring that improvements—even those driven by commercial needs—can benefit the entire community.

For inquiries about commercial licenses, dedicated support, or custom development, please see the offerings on my company website.
