Hallo! 👋
Thanks for stumbling onto my little tech corner.
This is where I document the stuff I'm learning by building (and breaking).
I work with Ruby, Rails, Hotwire, Tailwind, JavaScript, SQL, PostgreSQL, AWS — and nowadays I dabble in RAG, LangChain, MCP, fine-tuning, and frontier AI models when I'm feeling brave.
I started this blog because I kept forgetting solutions to problems I’d already solved — sound familiar?
Herzlich Willkommen!
