Why this site exists

Çagri Çimen
Software Engineer building with AI tools, writing about what I learn.
I lead engineering teams and ship things with AI-assisted workflows. This site is where I keep my notes, essays, guides, and projects — a working record of what I try, what sticks, and what I'd do differently next time.
