I’m a smart and passionate software engineer who brings the best ideas from functional programming to any engineering context. I am looking for mid-level to senior SWE positions. My experience has primarily been in backend development, but I am open to full-stack or other SWE roles.

I recently created heneli.dev (Typescript, React, Next.js, Tailwind) and am days away from publishing the first of several technical articles (https://github.com/hkailahi/heneli.dev/pull/6).

Covers topics on architecting, building, deploying and running software and systems for the web based on open source tools with lean methodologies.

Sorry, that's not minimalism. gwern.net isn't either; I'd call that "brutalism" instead.

THIS is minimalism: https://manuel.kiessling.net

Precisely in the sense of "NOT a lot going on at all times". Just the content, presented pleasently.

And importantly, it's not only minimalism in look-and-feel, but also technically: even a long post with an embedded image like https://manuel.kiessling.net/2021/05/02/tutorial-react-singl... weighs in at under 200 KiB. Loads in under 3 seconds even on "slow 3G" in Chrome. 362 milliseconds via my office's wifi.

Also, no JavaScript. Nothing moves or jumps. Perfectly usable and consumable in a CLI browser like Lynx.

All of that without looking brutalist.

It’s also a great extension of a CV, at least I see my https://manuel.kiessling.net blog that way.

I have a very oldschool "FTP webspace" with Ionos (from 1&1) - it's really just your run-of-the-mill static website hosting package, basically unchanged since the late nineties.

Well, it surely changed a lot under the hood from the provider's perspective, I assume, but from the user's perspective, it works as it has always worked: you have a domain, you have an (S)FTP account, you upload your static HTML/CSS files, et voilá, you have a homepage/blog.

I create my HTML/CSS locally using Hugo. The source for my homepage and its blog posts can be seen at https://github.com/manuelkiessling/manuel.kiessling.net.

Super simple, no headaches, no downtimes. Less than 4 bucks per month.

I do depend on Ionos, of course, but as it's only HTML and CSS, it with every web site hosting solution on the planet.

I also depend on Hugo, of course, but Hugo is open source, and I've even stored the Hugo binaries for different platforms locally.

My homepage is at https://manuel.kiessling.net/.
