Welcome to my digital garden – a space dedicated to exploring technology and sharing what I’ve been learning. This site reflects my passion for continuous learning and open-source software, wherein I document my journey, offer insights, and dive into miscellaneous topics that reflect my interest. My goal is to maintain a corner of the Web for self-expression focused on valuable, distraction-free content. I believe in the power of the Open Web as a platform for sharing knowledge.

Route work-related links to the work web browser, and vice-versa. This is on macOS. Finicky addresses it very well: A macOS app for...

After years using the default prompt from grml-zsh-config (with minor modifications), I adopted starship: The minimal, blazing-fast, and infinitely customizable prompt for any shell! My ~/.config/starship.toml is meant to resemble the zsh prompt I’ve been using, with minor tweaks and improvements: toml # Minimal...
