My 🏠 on the ☁️

My personal over-engineering site on the cloud.

Motivation

Sharing is learning!

I started this blog as a way to document and share the things I have learned and found useful in my journey as a software engineer.

Writing and noting things down is a great way for me to solidify my understanding of new concepts and technologies, and I hope that my blog can be a helpful resource for others who are interested in web development and related technologies.

I would be highly appreciated if you could leave your comments and thoughts on what I have written 🍻

Tech stack

This blog is hosted on Vercel, built with Next.js and Tailwind CSS using Tailwind Nextjs Starter Blog.

A huge thanks to Timothy Lin for the minimal, lightweight, and super easy-to-customize blog starter.

A few major over-engineering-changes from the original repo:

• ⚛️ Upgrading to React 18, NextJS 13
• 🎉 Adopting Typescript, committing with Conventional Commits
• 📊 Monitoring site with Umami website analytics
• 👀 Theming in dark mode with Github dark dimmed colors for better contrast
• 👨‍💻 Making a lot of changes to the UI, new homepage design, adding ProfileCard, CareerTimeline components, adding /snippets, /resume page, etc.
• 📥 Bumping up mdx-bundler, rehype/remark plugins and dependencies to the latest version
