Why I Finally Added a Blog to This Site

I've been going back and forth about adding a blog here for a while.

Not because I didn't have things to say, but because I didn't want to start something I wouldn't enjoy maintaining.

Why start with just one post?

Because momentum matters more than volume.

I want this blog to be:

  • Lightweight
  • Low-pressure
  • Useful (to me first, hopefully to others too)

So instead of launching with a big backlog, I'm starting with a single post and seeing how it feels to ship, iterate, and respond to real usage.

What I plan to write about

Most posts will probably fall into a few loose categories:

  • Engineering notes and experiments
  • Architecture decisions (and regrets)
  • Things I learned the hard way
  • Occasionally, personal reflections about building things on the internet

No strict schedule. No content calendar. Just writing when there's something worth capturing.

Why now?

Because this site is finally in a place where it feels alive.

The tooling is flexible, the content pipeline is simple, and adding a post is frictionless. That's the point where writing stops being a chore and starts being part of the process.

What's next

For now, this post is mostly a placeholder, but also a promise:

If you're reading this, more will come.

And if it doesn't?
At least this one shipped.

Thanks for stopping by.
