This isn't a blog. More of an app? I write all my posts in React. Keen to introduce MDX into the mix.

Why does this exist?

  • Publicly documenting what I learn month-to-month. This might include anything from experiences growing Flick.tech & Dweet, my content diet (books, podcasts, blogs etc) to the lifestyle experiments I'm running (keto, intermittent fasting etc).
  • Listing things I love across:
    • Engineering practices
    • Products/tools
    • Blogs/books/podcasts
    • Health products
    • Places
  • For others to discover the lessons from the journey I've been on over the last few years:
    • Bootstrapping my first business (Flick.tech) to $2M ARR in 3 years whilst graduating computer science at Imperial College London in the top 3 of the cohort.
    • Co-founding Dweet.com - the first business that is successfully bringing the world of freelance work to the fashion & retail industries.
    • Founding & solo-developing multiple other side-projects Combox & Garn.io.
  • Self quantification dashboards:
    • Sleep, HRV, RHR via Oura ring API
    • Metabolic health via Freestyle Libre glucose monitor (similar to Levels)
    • Podcasts consumption via Pocket casts API
    • Exercise via Oura ring & Apple watch
    • Body vitals via FitTrack
    • Articles via Pocket API
