A place for my random thoughts, ideas, and things I've learned along the way.

Part 7 of the beginner's guide to ontologies — the concrete half of the frontend. A screen is a handful of hooks, and each hook is a read or write you already know: useObjects is part 3's fetchPage, useAction is part 5's optimistic action. The component kit by property type, where reads and writes meet, and bespoke vs config-driven clients.

Part 6 of the beginner's guide to ontologies — the frontend, at last. A frontend on an ontology is just the read and write models rendered. There are two apps: a Builder that edits the rulebook (definitions) and a Client that edits the data — and because properties are typed, the Client renders itself from the definition. One shared foundation, two apps, with a live demo.

Why developers forget their best work, what a brag document is, and how BragBit makes keeping one take 30 seconds.

Part 5 of the beginner's guide to ontologies. The write side, as a story: you never touch the database — you propose a named action, which is validated, checked against the rules, then committed to writeback and audited. Optimistic updates and rollback, all-or-nothing edits, and the ripples a write sets off.
I have been building software since 2010 — starting out in .NET for nearly 6 years before finding my real passion in frontend engineering in 2016. Over the last 15 years I have worked across the stack, and today I focus on the AI and agentic transformation of software development.
I am a Lead AI Frontend Engineer / Frontend Architect at WakeCap, where I lead frontend technology, build design systems and micro-frontend architecture, and ship AI-native tooling. My work spans MCP servers that expose our design system to coding agents, prototypes of agentic, ontology-driven UI systems, and autonomous developer tools like AFK, Claudeck, and Cortex — turning emerging AI capabilities into production engineering practice.
Fun fact about me, I am a color-blind person 😁.
I love sharing knowledge. This website is my space to share whatever random thoughts and ideas I come up with. Welcome!
