Hello, this is Kikoman

I work full-stack and touch whatever the project needs: frontend, backend, mobile, desktop, AI. After enough of them, the valuable thing is rarely a specific implementation — it’s a reusable sense of judgment: what to buy, what to fork, what to build from scratch.

This blog is where I keep that:

• Real trade-offs from real projects, not tutorial-grade “best practices”
• Pitfalls I hit, and why I hit them
• Engineering habits that let an AI take over maintenance

I won’t post often, but I’ll try to only post things with signal.
