Uses

The tools and technologies I use day to day.

Daily Drivers

  • TypeScript — My primary language. Type safety without the rigidity.
  • React / Next.js — The combo I use most for frontends and full-stack.
  • Vue.js — Used extensively at Yuki and IOV Labs. Solid alternative.
  • Tailwind CSS — Styling without leaving the markup. Once you adopt it, you don't go back.
  • VS Code — Primary editor, infinitely extensible.
  • Ghostty / Hyper — Fast and configurable terminal.
  • Claude Code — Vibe coding in the terminal. My current development workflow.

Languages

  • TypeScript / JavaScript — Full-stack, from Node.js to the browser.
  • C# / .NET — Years of enterprise backend, APIs, and services.
  • Python — Scripting, automation, and data.
  • Go — Real concurrency, lightweight services.
  • Solidity — Smart contracts, DeFi protocols, bridging solutions.

Backend & Data

  • Node.js — Primary runtime for APIs and services.
  • Fastify — My go-to Node framework right now. Fast, lightweight, great plugin system.
  • NestJS — When you need structure and DI in Node.
  • PostgreSQL — My default choice, always. Robust and extensible.
  • SQL Server — Years of experience in the Microsoft ecosystem.
  • MongoDB — Documents when the schema is flexible.
  • Redis — Cache, queues, pub/sub. Fast for everything.

Cloud & Infrastructure

  • Google Cloud (GCP) — My current cloud. GKE, Cloud Run, BigQuery.
  • AWS — ECS, Lambda, S3, RDS. Years in production.
  • Azure — Solution Architecture, DevOps, App Services.
  • Terraform — Infra as Code. Multi-cloud, reproducible.
  • Docker — Standard containerization. Dev and prod.
  • Kubernetes — Orchestration in production.
  • Helm — Declarative deployments to K8s.

CI/CD & Automation

  • GitHub Actions / Azure DevOps / GitLab CI — End-to-end automated pipelines.
  • Quality Gates — Tests, linting, coverage, and security checks before merging.
  • Monorepos — Turborepo, Nx. One repo, many services.

Architecture & Practices

Patterns

  • Domain-Driven Design (DDD)
  • Clean Architecture / Onion
  • Event-Driven Architecture
  • GoF Design Patterns

Principles

  • TDD / Test-Driven Development
  • SOLID
  • DRY / KISS / YAGNI

AI-Assisted Development

  • Claude Code — My primary tool. Vibe coding in the terminal with real autonomy.
  • Cursor — AI-integrated IDE for assisted editing.
  • GitHub Copilot — Smart autocomplete. Used it a lot before migrating to Claude.

Blockchain & Cryptography

  • Bitcoin — Deep interest in the protocol and its philosophy.
  • Lightning Network — Instant payments, layer 2. Experience with Boltz.
  • Solidity / Hardhat / Ethers.js — Smart contract development, testing, and deployment.
  • Cryptography Fundamentals — Hashing, digital signatures, key management, encryption.
