Salama Ashoush

Senior Software Engineer at Box, in Amsterdam.
A tinkerer. I build developer tools — increasingly in Rust, mostly for the JavaScript ecosystem.

About

Most of what I build follows the same pattern: take a piece of JavaScript tooling everyone depends on, and find out what it looks like as a native binary. Sometimes the answer is "3x faster and a tenth the bundle size", sometimes it's "not worth it" — both are interesting.

  • Browser automation, HTTP mocking, build caching, and CI infrastructure.
  • NAPI-RS bindings, embedded JS engines, and protocol clients (CDP, WebDriver BiDi, MCP).
  • Games and desktop apps when I want a break from tooling.

Things I have built

Developer infrastructure
turbo-remote-cache-rs Self-hosted remote cache server for Turborepo, in Rust
ferridriver Browser automation with a Playwright-compatible API — CDP, WebDriver BiDi and WebKit backends, MCP server, Node/Bun bindings
ferrimock MSW-compatible HTTP mocking with a Rust matching engine, 3-4x faster
design-sync Sync design tokens across platforms

Libraries
pointrix Drag/resize/gesture library — 14 KB gzipped against interact.js's 100 KB, and considerably faster per event
barq Signal-based UI framework
clap-ts Type-safe CLI argument parser for TypeScript, modelled on Rust's clap
tanstack-template Full-stack React starter with TanStack Start and Router

Applications
dockside Native desktop app for Docker and Kubernetes via Colima
tuffahi Cross-platform Apple Music client — Electron, SolidJS, MusicKit JS
sweeprs macOS disk cleanup TUI
markdown-clipper Chrome extension that turns pages into clean markdown
saladin Crusades-era RTS on Bevy, with deterministic-lockstep multiplayer
