Welcome to My Blog

This is the first post on my new blog! I'm excited to start sharing my thoughts on web development, software engineering, and technology.

Why I Built This Blog

I wanted a simple, git-based blog system that would allow me to:

• Write in Markdown/MDX for flexibility
• Store content directly in the repository
• Deploy automatically with Vercel
• Focus on writing, not managing a CMS

What I'll Write About

Expect posts on topics like:

• Next.js and modern React patterns
• TypeScript best practices
• Web performance optimization
• Developer tooling and workflows
• Project breakdowns from my work

The Tech Stack

This blog is built with:

• Next.js 15 with App Router
• MDX for markdown with React components
• next-mdx-remote for rendering
• gray-matter for frontmatter parsing
• Tailwind CSS for styling

Example Code

Here's a simple TypeScript function:

function greet(name: string): string {
  return `Hello, ${name}!`;
}

console.log(greet("World"));

What's Next

I'm planning to add more features like:

• Syntax highlighting for code blocks
• Comments with giscus
• Tags and filtering
• Search functionality

Stay tuned for more posts!
