Ruby • Rails • Consulting • Backend tools • Self-hosted solutions
Web 1.0 principles, dialed to 10. Simple, fast, privacy-first tools built with modern tech. No tracking, no bloat; just simplicity.
My name is Vítek Meloun and I'm a seasoned Ruby on Rails developer from the Czech Republic. Over the years, I worked with various clients around the globe to help with their Ruby and Rails projects.
My philosophy is simple: software should be fast, private, and run on your own terms. No unnecessary complexity, no tracking, no cloud lock-in. I believe in the straightforward approach of the early web, updated for modern development needs.
Backend Development - Ruby, Rails, and server-side architecture
Ruby and Rails Upgrades - Updating legacy Rails applications, migrating between versions, and modernizing Ruby codebases to keep them secure and maintainable.
DevOps & Infrastructure - Cloud exit, self-hosted solutions, CI/CD pipelines, Docker containerization, and helping teams reduce cloud dependencies.
Technologies and tools I work with:
Local testing CI. Run tests locally, share signed results in PRs via Git notes. No remote servers needed.
My one‑command configurator for a clean Arch Linux install. No longer maintained, since Omarchy appeared.
My take on what a modern, yet simple CMS should be. So far, this is just my internal tool.
