Overview
What I built & why
Encrypted-by-default office suite. Real-time collaborative documents, sheets, presentations, kanban, and forms; the server never sees plaintext content.
Developed in France by XWiki; flagship privacy-first alternative to Google Workspace.

Process
Challenge & solution
The challenge
A patchwork of spreadsheets and three different inboxes meant nobody knew the real status of a job until the customer complained.
The solution
Wrote a zero-downtime migration pipeline that mirrored writes to both systems, then cut over after a clean shadow-read week.
