Hello, world

This is the first post on the rebuilt site. The old one was the default ASP.NET Core MVC template — four placeholder banners, Microsoft copy I never customized, and no real content. So I threw it away and started over.

The new stack is simple:

• Next.js (App Router) for the framework
• TypeScript everywhere
• Tailwind CSS for styling
• MDX for these posts

What's here

• /about — a little about me
• /projects — things I've built
• /blog — this
• /contact — how to reach me

What's next

More posts. More projects. Less placeholder copy.
