There's something terrifying about a blank page, isn't there?

Not the kind of terror that makes you freeze—though there's plenty of that—but the kind that makes you want to fill it with something, anything, just to break the silence. So here we are. Breaking the silence.

This is the part where I'm supposed to tell you what this blog is about. Give you a neat little elevator pitch. A blog about technology and design or thoughts on software development or some other perfectly reasonable description that tells you absolutely nothing about what you're actually going to read here.

But the truth? I don't entirely know yet.

I know it'll be about code—the kind that solves real problems, not the kind that impresses other developers. I know it'll be about design—the invisible kind, the kind that makes you feel something before you even realize you're feeling it. I know it'll be about building things: [jot](https://github.com/Intina47/jot), my CLI note-taking tool that taught me more about software distribution than any tutorial ever could. [context-sync](https://github.com/Intina47/context-sync), my AI context companion, that made me realise there's more to collecting context than just prompting a tool to summaries your chat.

But mostly, I think it'll be about the space between things. Between the idea and the implementation. Between what we say we're building and what we actually build. Between the glossy landing pages and the 2am debugging sessions where you question every life choice that led you to this moment.

The interesting stuff never fits into neat categories. It lives in the margins. In the stories we tell ourselves about why we build what we build. In the seemingly small decisions that compound into something bigger than we expected.

Like choosing to publish a CLI tool to Homebrew. That wasn't just about package management—it was about wanting jot to feel like it belonged. Native. Trusted. The kind of tool that's just there when you need it.

So that's what this is. A space for the interesting stuff.
