Think Positive Cyber

ResearchNodeNetwork started as a way to make family research easier to understand and continue over time. Instead of treating genealogy as a collection of isolated names, dates, and documents, I wanted to represent people as connected nodes in a growing network. Each person can lead to parents, children, descendants, ancestors, and other related branches, while the project keeps enough structure and metadata to preserve where those connections came from. The goal is to make family history feel less like searching through separate records and more like exploring a living map that can continue expanding as new information is discovered.

The project also gave me a chance to combine genealogy research with software development, automation, Linux, Qt, and AI-assisted workflows. ResearchNodeNetwork can work with portable research data, follow relationship paths, and support continued investigation from different starting points in the family tree. I have also been building it so future tools can recognize when I am doing genealogy research and help route that work back into the same project instead of starting from scratch each time. Over time, I want this network to become a practical way to preserve research, discover missing connections, and make a complicated family tree easier to explore, understand, and continue.
