Solo Dev · Director of Engineering

AI tools & apps, built solo in Appaveli Mode.

I’m Dominque — Director of Software Engineering by day, solo builder by night. I ship AI-assisted dev tools, sports apps, and systems that help me (and other devs) move faster without losing quality.

What is Appaveli Mode?
A solo sprint system built on urgency, rhythm, and legacy.

Every Monday starts a fresh sprint. Every Sunday, something ships — code, content, tooling, or a small experiment. No bloated roadmaps. Just focused reps.

It’s like being locked in the studio: headphones on, distractions off, track after track until the vision sounds right.

AI Stack

AI tools powering my workflow

I treat AI as a teammate — not a threat. These tools live in my terminal and browser, helping with code analysis, refactors, security, and content.

Featured
🧠 Appaveli CodeMind

Open-source AI assistant for code analysis, refactoring, test generation, and security scanning across Java, Kotlin, Swift, Dart, C++, PHP, and JavaScript.

Python · FastAPI CLI + Web UIs
🛠 Developer Tooling

Internal CLIs and generators I use to keep my solo pipeline lean: scaffolding Java backends, native mobile projects, and boilerplate structures.

Apps

Sports, planning & utility apps

I started with sports playbook tools and budgeting apps. Many of these are still live in the stores and evolve as I do.

🏀 Appaveli Playbooks

Digital playbook apps for coaches and players. Basketball, hockey, and more — used to draw, organize, and share plays efficiently.

  • Top Paid Sports apps on the Microsoft Store
  • Mobile + desktop ecosystems
Coaching tools Multi-platform
📅 Planning & Utility

I also build tools around planning, budgeting, and personal systems — extending Appaveli Mode into everyday life workflows.

These ship in small iterations: new features added in weekly sprints, driven by real usage, not theory.

About Appaveli (aka Dominque)

I’m Dominque, Director of Software Engineering by day, solo builder by night. I run AppaveliTech Solutions, LLC as my lab for AI agents, dev tooling, and sports / planning apps.

Some days I’m deep in architecture and leadership. Other days I’m in the terminal, running CLIs I built for myself. Either way, I stay in motion: learning, shipping, and documenting the journey along the way.
