I'm Perry Schippers. I spent nearly 30 years with the Department of National Defence, I've been part of Scouting since I was a Cub, and these days I build privacy-first software. This site is where those parts of my life come together.

• RANN APPs: practical applications that run on your own computer and keep your data yours.

• Scouting: my current roles with Scouts Canada, and the trail and tripping maps I've collected over the years.

• Thoughts and Interesting Things: ideas I'm working through, from camp operations to how we govern ourselves.
