Devtool Obsession
First Bun + Anthropic. Now Astro + Cloudflare. The devtool space is heating up in a very AI world!
Howdy 👋
Welcome to the garden of Anurag Bhandari the developer, a generalist software engg.
This little space on the web is where I write about my coding (mis)adventures, share bookmarks, and scribble short notes to help my future self (and you?) learn something useful.
🎩 Hats I have worn over the years:
Full-Stack Engineer, Engineering Manager, Frontend Architect, Applied R&D Technologist, Linux
Developer, OSS Founder, and "the guy who'll fix my computer".
I love experimenting with shiny new things ✨, learning through knowledge sharing 📣, and spraying emojis 🙂.

Saved them both storage and compute costs.

How Reddit Migrated Comments Functionality from Python to Go
Tap compare, what a clever way to migrate from one tech stack to another in production. Sounds like a beginner interviewer shadowing an experienced one in real interviews.
