Disabled U.S. Marine Corps Veteran, husband, and father. Field Service Engineer with years in avionics, pneudraulics, and Automated Test Equipment — and, alongside it, owner & operator of Link Robins, plus a Flarum team member, moderator, and extension developer.
Link Robins LLC is an independent, veteran-owned one-person software studio built entirely around Flarum. I make the pieces a modern community needs but shouldn't have to build or run itself — on a platform I help build.
Flarum is powerful, but getting the most out of it — adding realtime, connecting modern AI assistants safely, spinning up a clean place to build, or just knowing your site is up — is harder than it should be. I make those the easy part.
What I build
Hosted realtime, forum analytics, AI tooling, free uptime monitoring, and a growing catalog of open-source extensions. If it helps a Flarum owner, it's in scope. Short notes on what shipped and what changed go on updates.
