Cobalt Labs is a specialized development house focused on the intersection of low-level systems and high-level aesthetic interfaces. We don't just build apps; we build the infrastructure they run on.
The bedrock of our technology.
- Cobalt Kernel: A custom, monolithic-inspired kernel built from scratch in Rust (
no_std). Featuring its own memory management, panic handlers, and a growing syscall interface. - Terminal CLI: A robust, feature-rich shell interface designed for kernel-level interaction.
Reclaiming digital sovereignty.
- Private Storage: Self-hosted cloud infrastructure running on bare-metal hardware.
- Axum Backend: High-concurrency file processing engine built with Rust + Tokio.
- Dioxus Client: A sleek, cross-platform desktop client with drag-and-drop capabilities.
Exploring the frontier.
- Neural Experiments: Implementing neural networks and LLM integration patterns.
- Scratch Models: Building AI components from the ground up to understand the core mechanics of machine intelligence.
Pixel-perfect engineering.
- Flutter + Rust FFI: Blending the beauty of Flutter with the raw power of Rust.
- Glassmorphic Design: Implementing state-of-the-art UI/UX patterns (Vercel/Linear inspired).
- Encrypted Notepad: A secure-first native application with Rust-powered encryption.
I am Ibrahim Haji, Founder of Cobalt Labs. After 7 years of deep-diving into the software stack, I've consolidated my expertise into a single mission: redefining the standard for performance-critical applications.
I specialize in bridge-building: connecting the hardware to the user via Rust FFI, architecting no_std environments, and designing interfaces that feel alive.
- Multi-HDD Cloud Pooling: S3-compatible layer for distributed private storage.
- Cobalt OS: Evolving the current kernel into a bootable, usable workstation environment.
- Mobile Rust Core: Shared Rust logic across iOS/Android via Flutter FFI.
- Bevy Game Engine: High-performance rendering experiments.
