Tools & DevOps
This category covers everything that surrounds the act of writing code: git workflows, deployment automation, CI/CD setup, server configuration, command-line tooling, and the small scripts that remove repetitive work. Working as a one-person studio, this layer isn't a luxury but a necessity — every deployment done by hand is, sooner or later, a deployment done wrong. Most of these articles start from a single question: what do I need to build so I never have to do this a second time? From plain shell scripts to fully automated deployment pipelines, I document the setups I genuinely use on my own projects, including the walls I hit while building them.
