What You'll Find Here

This website serves as my digital home on the internet. Here's what you can expect:

The homepage features a unified activity feed that pulls together updates from various platforms:

  • GitHub - My open source contributions, projects, and coding activity

This blog section is where I share longer-form content:

  • Technical tutorials and deep dives
  • Project retrospectives

Dynamic Theming

Use the theme selector in the header to choose a dark or light appearance. Your selection is saved locally for your next visit.

The Tech Stack

For the technically curious, here's how this site is built:

  • Frontend: React 18 with TypeScript, Vite, and TailwindCSS
  • Backend: Node.js with Express
  • Storage: SQLite for local caching
  • Hosting: Self-hosted on a VPS

External activity is refreshed in the background and cached locally. Web mentions are discovered through a private, self-hosted search service. Pages and articles are maintained as Markdown files.
