Hello, world
Why I built this site, and what I plan to do with it.
- #meta
This is the first post. A quick note about why this site exists.
I wanted a permanent home for the things I make and write — somewhere that isn’t a feed, isn’t a DM, and doesn’t disappear. Twitter-length notes are fine but they don’t stick around, and the projects I’m most proud of deserve more than a README.
What you’ll find here
- Writing — short notes on things I’m learning, longer posts when a topic earns it, and eventually interactive pieces (the kind you see on The Pudding) when a topic is better shown than told.
- Projects — what I’m actively building, what shipped, and what I shelved. Right now that means StravaAI, a side project that auto-enriches Strava activity descriptions with AI.
The site itself
Built with Astro and deployed on Vercel. Content lives in MDX files in the repo, which means each blog post is literally a markdown file with the option to drop React components in when I want interactivity. That’s the trick that makes Pudding-style pieces possible without rebuilding the whole site.
More soon.
