Why I Built This Site: Notes I Can Return To

I built this site so the things I make and the things I learn could live in one place.

The problem: notes scattered everywhere

I’ve been building software since 2018, mostly dashboards, REST APIs and web scrapers. Along the way I’ve spent a lot of time on the small details: why something behaves differently than I expected, which approach is simpler, and what I’ll want to remember the next time the same problem turns up.

Those lessons used to end up in drafts, old projects and forgotten browser tabs. I wanted one place to keep them.

What lives here

This site brings together:

• My projects. The tools, games and references I build alongside my day job.
• My engineering blog. Step-by-step tutorials at tech.raturi.in.
• A little about me. I’m a software engineer from India, a Raspberry Pi tinkerer, and someone who enjoys mountain trails and philosophy. There’s more on the about page.

How I plan to write

I’m not publishing to fill a calendar. I’d rather write when I have something useful or meaningful to say, and in a way that will still make sense to me when I come back to it later.

Mostly, this is a note to my future self. If something here saves you an hour of debugging or gives you a useful starting point, I’m glad you found it. If you have a question or a correction, get in touch.
