Why Build in Public?

There’s something powerful about working with the garage door open. It invites collaboration, accelerates learning, and creates accountability. This blog is an experiment in that philosophy.

What to Expect

I’ll be sharing:

  • Technical deep dives on architecture decisions
  • Lessons learned from scaling teams and systems
  • Tooling and workflow optimizations
  • The occasional philosophical musing on the craft

The Stack

This site itself is built with:

  • Astro for static generation and island architecture
  • React for interactive components
  • Tailwind CSS for styling (configured with a Swiss design system)
  • MDX for rich content authoring

Every decision is documented in ADRs in the /docs/decisions directory.

Let’s Connect

Whether you’re here for the technical content or to discuss engineering leadership, I’d love to hear from you. Check out the contact page for the best ways to reach me.

The journey of a thousand commits begins with a single push.
