About Original Lab

This is original.dev our public tech playground. We tinker with Webex, Meraki, Intersight, DevOps & AIOps, and occasionally argue about tabs vs spaces.
Want the grown-up website? Visit original.org.uk.

We don’t publish real customer examples here. No secrets, no production data, and absolutely no “quick screenshot from prod”. Promise.

Why no real customer examples?
Because we like our customers and our auditors. This is a public lab; we only use synthetic data and safe simulators.
Is this site ISO 27001/42001 certified?
This site follows those controls and principles; certifications apply to our organisation and management systems, not this sandbox.
Tabs or spaces?
Spaces. But we’re kind to tab people.
