About

I'm Kévin, a developer based in the South of France. I wrote my first lines of code in 2003 and never looked back — today I build professional websites for clients and craft my own products on the side. Minoa is the one closest to home: a private, ad-free baby journal with an interactive timeline you can zoom like a map, made for parents who want their kids' memories kept safe and hosted in Europe. Dad of two, and quietly obsessed with getting the backend right — it's the source of truth, the last line of defense for a family's data. I just try to do it justice.

What We Learned from Launching Cloud World Model on Product Hunt

We finished #5 Product of the Day. Here's what three days of 60+ comments actually taught us.

We launched Cloud World Model on Product Hunt last week. The pitch: simulate AWS, GCP, Azure, OCI, and DigitalOcean infrastructure without provisioning real resources. You describe an architecture compute, databases, load balancers, serverless functions and the simulator models latency curves, CPU saturation, autoscaling behavior, failure propagation, and cost. No cloud bill.

We expected interest from learners. The comments told a different story.

What's the messiest folder on your computer right now?

For me, it's usually Downloads.

Thousands of screenshots, random PDFs, ZIP files, invoices, images, and files named things like:

They instantly appear on an interactive timeline you can zoom from birth to today, like Google Maps, but in time. Share with grandparents via a single link. No account needed on their end. No ads, no data selling, servers in Europe. Free to start. Yours forever.
