Hello, I'm Don Hamilton

Welcome to my digital garden 🌱

I left social media behind a while ago. This is the place that I come to share my thoughts and information about things that I'm interested in and working on.

What I'm about

I'm passionate about building useful things with code. I also want to use this space to empower more people to use tech to their advantage instead of feeding content to big tech outlets. It is my goal to share my interests in tech with as many people as possible to give others the power to curate their own personal space online without having to support big tech institutions. The tools I use for this are:

• Web Development: TypeScript, HTML, CSS, JavaScript (including various frontend frameworks and libraries)
• Infrastructure: Linux, Docker, Kubernetes, ArgoCD
• Workflow: Vim and, increasingly, Neovim

What's here

This is a place that I put my thoughts and work. I'm working on understanding it more as I use it. I might include full on projects and stuff like that at some point. But this isn't meant to be a resume. I just want to use this in a similar fashion that I would use social media. But I kind of feel like social media is a huge gaping problem. It should be an open source protocol. It shouldn't be companies harvesting your data and selling shit to advertisers. Anyway. This is where I put stuff that I care about. If you care about it to, I hope you like what I have to say.
