I have been procrastinating for a very long long time on writing blogs. I purchased my domain way back in 2017, playing around with VMs using DigitalOcean, setting up wordpress, letsencrypt trying to start writing a blog and once everything was set up, I stopped.

Over the years, I tried restarting the effort to blog but eventually, I would not follow it through.

I guess you could say that the first step is always the hardest, and I hoped that with this first post, I will be able to finally do something that I wanted to do for a very long time.

I hope to write an article once per month so to improve my technical writing skills and share what I've learned. I will mostly be blogging about java, spring framework for a start but may also include typescript later on and anything I find useful to share especially on tools to improve productivity.

I worked mostly on backend stuff using Spring framework now, but I also did reactjs with feathersjs in my previous job which led me to create my first open-source project feathers-ottoman which is a database-adapter to bridge feathersjs and couchbase and some contribution to feathersjs which is a really awesome framework to use and definitely deserved much more support.

Let's revisit this at the end of 2022 and see how this goes!
