Building in Public: Why I'm Starting This Blog

There's something powerful about writing in public. It forces clarity of thought, creates accountability, and opens doors to unexpected connections.

The Why

I've been building things for years—products, teams, systems. But I've kept most of my learnings tucked away in private notes, scattered across Notion databases and markdown files that only I can see.

That changes now.

What You'll Find Here

This blog is a mix of:

• Technical deep-dives — The kind of posts I wish existed when I was stuck on a problem
• Product thinking — Frameworks and mental models I've found useful
• Personal reflections — On building, learning, and the journey itself

Code, Because Why Not

Here's a little TypeScript to prove the syntax highlighting works:

interface BlogPost {
  title: string;
  content: string;
  publishedAt: Date;
}

function formatPost(post: BlogPost): string {
  return `# ${post.title}\n\n${post.content}`;
}

And some Python for good measure:

def hello_world():
    """A simple greeting function."""
    return "Hello, World!"

# Call the function
message = hello_world()
print(message)

The Stack

This blog is built with:

• Next.js 16 with App Router
• Markdown files for content (no CMS, just files)
• Static Site Generation for maximum speed
• TailwindCSS for styling

Everything lives in Git. Adding a new post is as simple as creating a new .md file.
