Hey there 👋 Welcome to Xylo Digital
I’m Dan Paul, a front-end developer and project manager based in Henderson, NV. Drawing on years of enterprise-scale infrastructure work, I started Xylo Digital to craft fast, accessible websites—and to back them with sensible tools like Notion dashboards and GitHub-powered automations that keep projects on track and visible to you, the client.
At Xylo we:
- 💻 Ship modern websites — We keep a library of quick-start templates—everything from custom static builds to React frameworks like Docusaurus—and stick to headless CMS (no bloated WordPress) to wring out every bit of speed and SEO.
- 🚀 Host and automate — Docker-based LAMP/LEPP stacks on DigitalOcean, with GitHub Actions CI/CD that pushes changes from commit to production in minutes.
- 📈 Level-up productivity — Custom Notion workspaces, my A-PT-NR template, and a self-hosted Zulip chat server to keep every decision threaded and searchable.
- 🎥 Create media — From Adobe Premiere edits to social-ready reels, plus a dash of AI to keep things lean.
You’ll find three main tracks here:
- Build Logs — Deep dives into the tech I’m rolling out for clients (and for our own stack), lessons learned, and hard-won shortcuts.
- Productivity Lab — Experiments with Notion, Strapi, Zulip, and self-hosted AI agents that move side-projects forward without adding overhead.
- Behind the Business — Candid notes on freelancing, running a remote-first shop, and balancing code with the occasional drum session.
If you’re a founder who wants a blazing-fast site, a PM hunting for cleaner workflows, or just someone who loves nerdy rabbit holes, you’re in the right place. Subscribe, drop a comment, or ping me on our Chat Server—I’d love to hear what you’re building.
Thanks for stopping by. Let’s create something excellent, together.
— Dan
