Hello World -- mikrut.dev is Live

#meta#portfolio

Hello, World!

Welcome to mikrut.dev — my corner of the internet.

After 12+ years of building software for others, I finally got around to building something for myself. This site is my developer portfolio, blog, and digital playground.

Why a Terminal Theme?

Because I grew up playing Tibia and browsing the early 2000s internet. That era had character — no cookie banners, no infinite scroll. Just text, links, and personality.

This site is a love letter to that era, built with modern tools:

  • Astro 5 for blazing fast static generation
  • Tailwind CSS 4 for styling
  • Cloudflare Pages for global edge delivery

What to Expect

I’ll write about:

  • .NET architecture — patterns, anti-patterns, and breaking monoliths
  • Azure — real-world lessons from running systems at scale
  • AI engineering — agents, workflows, and the practical side of AI
  • Career stuff — from plumber to tech lead (yes, really)

Stay tuned. More posts coming soon.
