Overview

What I built & why

Open source, self-hostable web analytics platform. GDPR-compliant by default; no third-party data sharing.

Formerly known as Piwik. Used by the EU, UN, and many privacy-focused organisations.

Highlights

Key deliverables

  • Self-host first
  • GDPR compliant
  • 100% data ownership
  • Heatmaps + session replay
  • Real-time reports

Process

Challenge & solution

The challenge

Editorial wanted to publish from anywhere, but the existing CMS made a simple image swap a fifteen-minute task.

The solution

Wrote a zero-downtime migration pipeline that mirrored writes to both systems, then cut over after a clean shadow-read week.
