Hello World
First post — why I'm starting a blog and what to expect.
After years of meaning to start a blog, I finally did it.
I'm a software engineer based in Sydney, Australia. I mostly work on backend systems and APIs during the day, but I've been wanting a place to write down things I learn, share projects I'm working on, and generally have a corner of the internet that's mine.
What I'll write about
- Things I'm building or tinkering with
- Notes on problems I've solved (mostly so future-me can find them)
- Occasionally, thoughts on software engineering more broadly
The stack
This site is built with Next.js 15, styled with Tailwind CSS v4, and deployed to Cloudflare Pages. It's statically exported — no server, fast by default.
Blog posts are just markdown files in a content/posts/ directory. Simple and maintainable.
More posts coming soon.
