Why I started this blog (and what you will find here)

Hi, I'm David.

I've been working as a developer for over 4 years, and during all that time I've lost count of how many times a random blog post saved my day. That guy who documented how he fixed an obscure webpack bug at 3 AM, the person who explained a complex concept with clear examples, the tutorial that saved me hours of frustration.

I'll never meet those people, but I owe them a lot.

This blog is my way of paying it forward.

What you'll find here

I'm not going to write generic tutorials that already exist on a thousand sites. The idea is to share things I wish I had found when I needed them:

Real problems and how I solved them — with context, not just the code that worked
Honest opinions about tools — the good, the bad, and when it makes sense to use them
Things I'm learning — because explaining something is the best way to understand it
Personal projects — the process, not just the end result

Basically, a development logbook that I hope will be useful to someone else.

What's coming

Besides the blog, I have plans to add other sections to the portfolio:

A space to experiment with new technologies
Documentation of side projects as I build them
Maybe recommendations for books and tools I use

The site will keep growing. For now, this is the starting point.

If you made it this far, thanks for reading. See you in the next post.
