What's This Blog About?
Honestly, I've been thinking about starting a blog for a while. I wanted a place where I could share my experiences, the things I've learned (and the mistakes I've made), and maybe help someone else avoid some of the pitfalls I've encountered.
You'll find a mix of things here:
- Technical stuff about React, Next.js, TypeScript, and web development in general
- Real-world experiences and lessons learned
- Thoughts on tools and technologies I'm using
- Sometimes just random thoughts about being a developer
What I Work With
Most of my time these days is spent with:
- React - for building interactive UIs
- Next.js - for creating fast, SEO-friendly websites
- TypeScript - because I like my code to tell me when I'm doing something wrong
- Modern web development practices - performance, accessibility, all that good stuff
I'm also dabbling in Flutter lately, trying to expand into mobile development. It's been interesting so far, and I might share some thoughts on that too.
About This Site
This portfolio site you're looking at? I built it with Next.js and TypeScript. It's my little playground where I try out new things, experiment with design, and showcase what I can do. Plus, it's a good way to practice what I preach about performance and SEO.
