Hello world

Why this blog exists, and what I expect to end up writing about here.

Every blog starts with one of these, so here is mine.

I spend most of my time building software and reading about how other people build software. A lot of what I learn evaporates unless I write it down, and notes in a private file never get the second pass that makes them useful. So: a blog.

What goes here

Roughly three kinds of post:

  • Notes — short things I looked up and want to find again.
  • Walkthroughs — a problem, the approaches I tried, and which one survived.
  • Opinions — held loosely, revised in public.

How it's built

This site is a small Next.js app. Posts are .mdx files in content/, and the next post covers exactly how that works if you want to build something similar.

No comments, no newsletter, no tracking. Just the writing.
