About
Housekeeper Systems is a build blog — long-form build stories, documented episode by episode as they actually happen. The wrong turns, the dead ends, and the measurements that wouldn't sit still all stay in.
Each serial follows one build from bricked to working. The first is a Neato D10 robot vacuum, gutted after the company went bust and the cloud went dark, and rebuilt as an open, locally-controlled ROS 2 robot. More serials will follow.
Alongside the episodes are reference docs — living documents kept current as the build changes, unlike the episodes, which are snapshots in time.
Colophon
Built with Astro. Type is Rubik, Inter, and DM Mono. Photos are compressed to webp at build time. The theme is a nod to the “August” portfolio theme. Source on GitHub; follow along via RSS.
