For most of my personal writing, I use the Pandoc tool to convert Markdown sources into a variety of output formats. Although Pandoc has native support for numbered example lists, it is difficult to format them into interlinear glosses, which are very common in linguistics literature and especially in reference grammars, which I sometimes write for my conlangs. Pangloss was my attempt to provide for this use case in the form of a filter that adds a syntax for glosses, which it converts and styles using a LaTeX backend. Unfortunately I mostly abandoned this project while at college, but I've recently begun a rewrite to take advantage of the new Lua filter mechanism added in Pandoc 2. I hope to build and maintain a much more robust program this time with support for more output formats.

I have a personal interest in vexillology (the study of flags) and occasionally design my own as a hobby. You can see some of mine at the Flag Gallery. Flags sit at the intersection of design and symbolism, and my interest in both studying and creating them stems from the challenge of balancing the two.
