Why I Built This
For the past few years, every project I worked on hit the same wall.
Not product logic.
Not UI.
Not even scaling.
Infrastructure.
Every time:
- Authentication took longer than expected
- APIs grew messy fast
- Security was “we’ll fix it later”
- Tooling became duct tape and workarounds
I got tired of rebuilding the same foundation over and over.
So I decided to build it once — properly.
The Problem Nobody Gets Excited About (But Everyone Suffers From)
Most developers don’t fail because their idea is bad.
They fail because:
- Auth steals weeks
- APIs become inconsistent
- Secrets get mishandled
- Infra work kills momentum
None of this is fun.
None of this is what we want to work on.
But it’s unavoidable.
What I Decided to Build
I started building Heavstal Tech — a developer-first infrastructure platform focused on:
- 🔐 OAuth2 identity management
- ⚡ APIs & automation tools
- 📦 Reusable developer modules
- 🛡️ A secure password manager
- 📘 Clear documentation from day one
Not flashy.
Not hype-driven.
Just secure, scalable, production-ready foundations.
What Makes This Different (At Least for Me)
I built this with a few non-negotiables:
- Secure by default
- No “enterprise demo” gatekeeping
- Real documentation, not placeholders
- Built by someone who actually needed it
This wasn’t a startup pitch.
It was a survival mechanism.
Current State (Being Honest)
I’ve been building this for about 4.5 months.
It works.
It’s live.
It’s documented.
And yes — usage is still low.
That’s part of why I’m writing this.
I want feedback from real developers, not marketing noise.

What I’m Looking For
I’m not asking for hype.
I’m looking for:
- Honest feedback
- Use cases I didn’t consider
- Pain points you hit in infra work
- Suggestions from people who’ve been here
If you’ve ever rebuilt auth or APIs from scratch, I’d genuinely love your thoughts.
Thanks for reading.
