Hi, I'm Vincent ๐Ÿ‘‹
Full-stack engineer shipping AI products end-to-end. You can call me Vincent Yang, VY, or missuo โ€” I love open source, networking, and turning ideas into shipped products.
Vincent Yang

About

Since OpenAI launched ChatGPT at the end of 2022, I've been all-in on AI โ€” leaning hard into Vibe Coding and AI-assisted programming to go from idea to shipped product in days instead of months. My open-source work has earned roughly 30k combined GitHub stars across authored and contributed projects. I hold a Master's in Computer Science from the University of Pittsburgh, and on the network side I independently operate AS30700, AS60614, AS206729 & AS401389, with peering at NVIX and TPIX.

Things I've built

From AI-powered products and native Apple apps to the open-source networking tools I rely on every day.

AI Applications & Tools

AI coding sandbox powered by Firecracker microVMs, pre-baked with Claude Code and Codex. Spins up isolated, disposable cloud dev environments in seconds so agents can safely execute arbitrary code, install dependencies, and iterate on a real Linux filesystem without escaping into the host.

Go

Claude Code
Codex
Linux

Serverless email inbox built on Cloudflare Workers with a token-authenticated REST API, full-text search, and an MCP skill that lets AI agents read, search, and send mail directly. Runs entirely at the edge with zero cold-start cost and no dedicated mail server to operate.

Rust
Cloudflare Workers
D1
MCP
TypeScript

AI-powered Studio Ghibli style image generator built with Next.js and shadcn/ui. Full product stack including queued image generation pipeline, Stripe-powered subscription billing, credit accounting, and a clean gallery UI โ€” shipped end-to-end from a single idea.

PostgreSQL

Zero-GUI voice input for macOS โ€” hold a hotkey, speak, and cleaned text lands in whichever app has focus. Audio streams to Doubao ASR in real time, then an OpenAI-compatible model corrects punctuation, spacing, and terminology using plain-text prompts and a user dictionary before the result is pasted back. Native Objective-C shell + Rust core, no Electron, under 15 MB on disk.

LLM

AI-powered image restoration tool that intelligently removes stains, blemishes, and unwanted objects in a single click. Wraps a diffusion-based inpainting model behind a minimal UI so non-technical users can clean up old scans and photos without opening Photoshop.

Python
Diffusion Models
PyTorch
FastAPI

Mobile Applications

Native iOS app for tracking X (Twitter) follower counts across multiple accounts, with historical charts and seamless iCloud sync so the same watchlist and history follow you across every Apple device.

Swift
SwiftUI
CloudKit

Real-time USCIS case status tracker with push notifications the moment a case updates. Built for immigration applicants who were previously refreshing the USCIS site manually โ€” no more anxious polling during decision windows.

Swift
SwiftUI
APNs
CloudKit

Two-step authenticator supporting both the standard TOTP flow and Steam's proprietary mobile authenticator protocol โ€” a gap most iOS 2FA apps leave open. Secrets stay encrypted in the Secure Enclave and sync through iCloud.

Swift
SwiftUI
CryptoKit
TOTP

Lightweight, secure iOS app for managing Cloudflare domains and DNS records on the go. Scoped API tokens never leave the device, and record edits land in Cloudflare through their v4 API with optimistic UI updates.

Swift
SwiftUI
Cloudflare API

Native macOS application for seamless S3-compatible cloud storage management โ€” works with AWS S3, Cloudflare R2, Backblaze B2, and any other S3-API provider. Drag-and-drop uploads, multipart transfers, and presigned share links from a Finder-native UI.

Swift
SwiftUI
S3

Backend & Networking Tools

Lightweight, high-performance reverse proxy for NAT traversal written in Rust โ€” a faster, smaller alternative to frp and ngrok. Contributor to the project, which has grown to 13k GitHub stars and is widely deployed for self-hosted services.

Rust
Tokio
Reverse Proxy
Networking

Free, open-source DeepL Translation API proxy with high-concurrency support. 8.4k GitHub stars and powers translation features in dozens of downstream apps, browser extensions, and Immersive Translate-style tools worldwide.

Go
Gin
Docker
High Concurrency

Visual network route tracing tool โ€” a modern alternative to traceroute with built-in IP geolocation, ASN lookups, and map visualization. 7.6k GitHub stars and a staple in the Chinese networking / BGP community for diagnosing cross-border latency.

Go
ICMP
BGP
IP Geolocation

Local encrypted secret manager using Argon2id key derivation with AES-256-GCM authenticated encryption. Zero cloud dependency โ€” secrets never leave the device, and the vault format is a single portable file suitable for syncing via any storage of your choice.

Let's build something

I'm always happy to talk about AI infrastructure, open source, BGP, or a wild side-project idea. DMs and email are both open โ€” I respond to real questions and ignore solicitations.
