I'm excited to share that I created a font! It is monospaced, and designed to be used in code editors and terminals. Fellow programmers, do try it out and give me some feedback! More details here: blog.chay.dev/i-made-a-font #programming #typography

First post (skeet?) here! I was looking through the ingress-nginx documentation when this magic URL localdev(dot)me caught my eye. Wrote a short blog post about it here: blog.chay.dev/localdevme/ #dev #webdev
