# Kit Morgan
I build infrastructure tools for small teams: deploy inspectors, log viewers, and the boring glue that keeps a service up at three in the morning.
I like software that explains itself. Every tool I write prints what it is about to do before it does it, and ships with a README you can actually follow.
Most of my work is open source. When it isn't, I still write it as if someone else will have to maintain it, because someone always does.
kit-morgan / deploy-inspector
A command-line tool that shows exactly what a deployment will change (files, containers, database migrations) and asks before doing anything. Used by small teams who don't have a platform group.
kit-morgan / logbook
A fast, local log viewer for distributed systems that stitches requests back together across services.
kit-morgan / quiet-pager
An alerting layer that groups noisy alerts into one page with context, halving night-time wake-ups for an on-call rota.
kit-morgan / terraform-starter
A small, well-documented Terraform layout for a web app, a database and backups, with every choice explained.
kit-morgan / status-page-kit
A static status page that builds from a folder of Markdown incident notes.
