Independent by design. Phoenix, AZ.
I’m Hugh. I turn the ideas I keep coming back to into things people can use. This is my little corner of design, code, and figuring it out.
Design Build Launch
Prototypes, web apps & business tools
Your idea. A hands-on partner.
01 Selected projects
Explore the products I’m building, from business tools to community apps. A look at how I bring design and development together.
Design & development tools
Room to explore. Evidence to decide.
A studio for organizing software experiments, review criteria, and test evidence. Keep the work and the reasoning behind each decision together.
Instant Ideas brings projects, scenarios, review workflows, and bounded test runs into a shared workspace. Sign in to open your workspace.
Local AI tools
Know before the big download.
A quick check for local AI. Pick a model, enter your computer's memory, and see whether it should fit before you download it.
Estimates cover the listed models or a download you enter. They are planning estimates, not benchmarks, and your hardware details stay in your browser.
AI & app tool guide
So many tools. Find your way in.
A field guide to AI and application tools: what each one does, how they fit together, and where to start. Search, filter by license, and compare.
Each entry links its primary sources and license. The guide is private to Admins in the Hugh Berryman LLC organization; sign in to open it.
Warrant management
A clearer view of every warrant.
A workspace for organizing warrants, agreements, and portfolio records. Bringing the documents and decisions around ownership into one place.
The current concept explores drafting, document organization, and portfolio workflows. The application is private while development continues.
Civic tools
More context for your vote.
A voter workspace for Greater Phoenix. Explore local races, compare candidate information, and organize the priorities that matter to you.
The project combines official district lookups with sourced candidate research and a personal voting sheet. Its candidate catalog is partial and dated; district matches are provisional, not a registration check or a complete sample ballot.
Local community
Find a little more belonging.
A local Muslim community app connecting halal food discovery, prayer tools, and community spaces. Designed for everyday life, close to home.
Explore a Greater Phoenix place directory alongside prayer tools and previews of community events. This is a development demo; sample events and notices are labeled in the app.
Focus & productivity
Work with the attention you have.
A calm workspace for planning projects, choosing a next step, and focusing on one thing—or a few. Leave the open loops somewhere you can return to.
Plan, Solo, and Lanes offer different ways to work with your current attention. The prototype includes focus sessions and keeps workspace data on the current device.
Design engineering portfolio
The thinking behind the making.
Selected product design and engineering work, case studies, and a résumé. A closer look at the decisions that turn complicated workflows into usable software.
The personal portfolio collects published work and design-system explorations, with attention to accessibility, responsive interfaces, and the details of implementation.
Need a prototype to test an idea, a first version of your product, or a better experience for existing users? I bring product design and development together to help you move forward.
You work directly with me, Hugh, from figuring out what to build through the details of making it work. We’ll define a focused first version, review working software together, and refine it around feedback.
