A sneak peek of DevPress

Explaining concepts and teaching others is a great way to grow as an engineer. It forces you to understand a topic at a fundamendal level. I have been writing on various platforms for a while now, but I wanted to create a space that I own and control.

While there are ton of blogging engines out in the wild, none of them checked all the boxes for me. So I did what every sane engineer does and decided to build my own blog engine from scratch: introducing DevPress.

I wanted to build something that I could use for my own content, and also share with the community. DevPress is specifically aimed at developers looking to set up a personal blog.

What you expect from a bloging engine in 2024:

• Markdown-based writing
• SEO optimized
• Hyper fast loading

interface Todo {
  Todo.title: stringtitle: string
}

const const todo: Readonly<Todo>todo: type Readonly<T> = { readonly [P in keyof T]: T[P]; }
Make all properties in T readonlyReadonly<Todo> = {
  
title: stringtitle: 'Delete inactive users',
}

const todo: Readonly<Todo>todo.title = 'Hello'
Cannot assign to 'title' because it is a read-only property.

Currently I'm dogfooding DevPress on my own blog, and I'm planning to open source it in the near future. If you are interested in setting up your own blog using DevPress, stay tuned!
