WavePoint
Solo-built and live in production: a Next.js 16 web app that computes astrology live from astronomical positions — birth charts, astrocartography, and transits calculated at request time, not served as static content. A shared TypeScript layer of pure, Zod-validated primitives powers the web app, a REST API, and an MCP server — a 915-commit monorepo.
