## Overview

This project highlights my interest in scalable backend systems, data parsing, and user-focused tooling.

It started as a smaller utility but expanded into a much larger system handling killfeeds, alarms, faction armbands, server data, and other game-related features.

## Focus Areas

- Parsing and structuring raw game server data
- Storing and querying useful analytics data
- Designing for modular growth and future expansion

## Notes

This is one of the projects that best reflects how I like to build software: practical, data-driven, and designed with extensibility in mind.
