MetallurgAI is your premier online destination for all things related to froth flotation and metallurgy. Whether you’re a seasoned professional or just starting
I went quiet for a bit, because some users wanted data persistence. This meant I had to go back and learn Mongodb and pivoted to NextJS. Its been week 3 of intimately trying to understand these two with a side personal finance tracker. I will transfer this knowledge to MetAI
🛠️ Day 0 of #BuildInPublic
Kicking off the full rebuild of MetAI — my metallurgical calculator suite.
🌀 Moving from ReactJS ➡️ Next.js + TypeScript
🧩 Keeping MongoDB
🎨 Using Tailwind + ShadCN
🌑 Dark mode. Fast. Modular. Domain-focused.
This is the gameplan rethink.
I built a metallurgy calculator platform that no one used.
The tools worked.
The UI was clean.
But I built it for myself, not the community.
Now I'm restarting — and this time, you're coming with me.

I’ve realized I built tools that solved *my* pain as a metallurgist, but didn’t test if others had the same problems. Time to fix that.
📌 My new mission:
✅ Reconnect my community
✅ Build in public
If you’re a process engineer, metallurgist, or plant tech, I’d love to chat.
My journey starts here again. I created a website with the aim of helping #metallurgist with their problems. However these were my problems, not the needs of community. Time to pivot:
