## Hey, I'm Derek Nguyen

I'm a software engineer in Ho Chi Minh City building practical developer utilities, backend systems, and small internet products. I like tools that are fast to open, useful without ceremony, and calm enough to become part of a daily workflow.

### Now building

[**Toolover**](https://toolover.work) is my current product focus: a suite of free browser-first developer tools for JSON, code formatting, API helpers, text utilities, and everyday workflow cleanup.

I'm also exploring other small developer-product experiments around useful, public, no-login software.

I like coffee, developer tools, and the kind of engineering work that quietly saves people time.
