  • The Way I Code (and have been coding for 30 years)

    2025-07-12

    Start with good decomposition. Then use encapsulation to create good abstractions. That's how I code. That's how I was taught to code 30 years ago. And it's still how I code today.

  • Adding Plugin Installation and User Switching to Turbo Admin

    2025-05-29

  • One does not simply update one’s dependencies

    2025-04-04

    I started trying to explain what I was doing and why, and as I did so I realised all the many, many things you have to understand for this process to make sense.

  • I am ACTUALLY good at programming

    2025-03-05
