Texting my Budget

Some random thoughts. I'm working on a new quirky side project after killing ResumoFII and it's been invigorating to iterate on it using the latest tools available. I've landed on a combination of Zed, Codex and an OpenCode Go sub for access to GLM

Killing ResumoFII

ResumoFII shipped in July 2025. It scraped 466 Brazilian real estate funds from B3, downloaded monthly PDF reports, and used Gemini 3.1 Pro to extract structured data into a Svelte frontend. It worked. It was live. Four months later I killed it. The Build ResumoFII started as a way

It's Alive

It’s been a while since my last update, but ResumoFII is finally live. This week I shipped it in it's currently half-baked state and it's available at resumofii.com. I was starting to get tired of being stuck in an endless build loop without

Boring Admin Plumbing

Real builders ship. It's been six months and I didn't deploy anything yet. Time to stop reading all the vibe coding hype on places like X because it sounds like everyone is a genius and able to ship complete products in a month 🤨 Anyways back to

Vibecoding a Monthly Report View

Last time I showed how Gemini is able to extract structured data from Brazilian monthly FII reports. I've been iterating/vibe coding ways to display the dynamic report data within the Svelte frontend and hit on something that's interesting enough for the MVP version of the

Gemini is a Boss

I hooked Gemini 2.5 Pro into my ResumoFII pipeline to pull structured data from Brazilian FII (REIT) PDF reports downloaded straight from the B3 stock exchange. These PDFs can be long, full of details and can take a while to read. The goal is to convert them into clean

The Scheduler Loop: Job Queues and PDF Downloads

So I've got 466 FIIs (Brazilian real estate funds) seeded in a local test database. ResumoFII's purpose is to help rapidly summarize each fund's monthly report. The reports get published on B3's site, and we can download them automatically. The idea is

Building ResumoFII

This project started as a way to learn more about Rust – and to explore how Clean Architecture principles can help avoid getting trapped in a tangled backend mess. I chose Rust because I wanted to deepen my understanding of the language, and building a small project is my preferred way

One Hour

One hour per day is reasonable. It's a manageable amount of time alongside a busy work schedule, exercise, social life and everything else. It's small enough that it doesn't feel like a sacrifice, but consistent enough that real progress adds up over time. Over

29 Test FIIs Seeded into ResumoFII

Things have been moving in my free time. I scraped FII data from B3 and CVM, ran some Python transformation scripts, and seeded 29 funds into ResumoFII. The backend is Rust + Axum + SQLite. The frontend is Svelte + Tailwind. I manually tested some Gemini 2.5 prompts in Google AI Studio
