Eight years of production code, from medical school to senior engineer. Not a lessons-learned list. More honest than that.

I picked it up for a specific project. I kept using it because it's genuinely good.

A small collection of hooks that I've written once and used on every project since.

i18n is the easy part. RTL layout, locale-specific formatting, and building for users who have never used a smartphone before: that's where it gets interesting.

Express is flexible. NestJS is opinionated. At a certain team size, opinionated wins.

JSI, Fabric, TurboModules. Here's what actually changed after migrating a production app.

Server Components aren't SSR. The distinction matters more than most explanations suggest.

Most P2P JavaScript tutorials use WebRTC. The Holepunch stack is different and more capable.

Most tutorials show you all the services. Experience narrows it down fast.

Not everything needs a test. Here's how I decide what to test, how to test it, and when to skip it.
