When we first set off to live the vanlife, we assumed it'd be easy to bring a dog along. Auzli (our mini Australian Shepherd), loves the outdoors and listens well to voice commands. We were sure...
I'm glad you've found this site useful. My goal is to provide a collection of free resources I wished I had when I began tinkering. Shortly, you'll be receiving a welcome email. Reminder: "The Diff"...
The more you're willing to self-manage your cloud software, the cheaper the costs will be. These days, it's actually relatively easy to use tools like Docker and Kubernetes to deploy stable...
Anybody who's set up more than a single Raspberry Pi knows how frustrating it can be to keep them all up-to-date and working correctly. The slightest configuration change can require copying files...
Actually compiling (building) a game with Unity can be slow. It hogs all the resources on your computer, leaving a frustrated Unity developer unable to do much else. Multiply this problem by building...
Now that my van build is complete (photo gallery), I wanted to look back on what I'd change (and what I'd keep the same). Some day, maybe once vans are electric and self-driving, I'll end up building...
To work from the road, we needed the van to also serve as a mobile office. It's hard enough to have an ergonomic work space at home or at an office. It was an even bigger challenge to make the...
Driving down dirt roads to dispersed campsites, things are always bouncing around in the van. We learned when building the sofa bed just how easily side-facing drawers can slide open. We thought it...
Building a kitchen in a van means making trade-offs. Do you really need hot water, or can you just boil some when you need it? Does the faucet need to have an electric pump, or can it just be done by...
Most vans I see have a similar layout: the bed at the back, and the kitchen near the sliding door on the side. I don't like this layout because, even though the area beneath the bed is used for...
