Past trauma motivated it.

I was responsible for multiple RADIUS services used by millions of people every day. The existing software is slow to build with, difficult to scale and expensive. I couldn't let it go.

Step one was building the platform to run it on and make it sustainable as a business. Step two is implementing protocols like RADIUS that lack a separated compute/storage model but should really have one.

I chose C# because I know it, and build native single-file executables using AoT.
