About

I'm a DevOps engineer who thrives on automating the mundane and making systems run like clockwork. I believe in the power of code to simplify and streamline be it configuring CI/CD pipelines for work or running homelab experiments just for the joy of it. For me, every problem is an opportunity to optimize, and I never shy away from rolling up my sleeves to build, tweak, and refine. When I'm not deep in the world of infrastructure as code, you’ll find me questioning tools that try to hide too much behind GUIs because let’s be honest, true control comes from the command line. It’s all about making tech work for you, not the other way around. Always learning, always experimenting, and always making things better whether it’s a piece of code or the entire workflow.

I Built My First Raycast Extension. Here's How I Did It!

I was inspired by @chrismessina to build my own Raycast extensions after he released his own! I have been using Raycast a lot more thanks to a gentle nudge from @jakecrump (and @Raycast's latest AI releases), so I knew I wanted to build my own Raycast extension at some point.

There was a lot of news about Cyberpunk for Mac released and I wanted to search if there was a deal for it on PC. I instinctively went to search Raycast .but it wasn t there. So my extension idea was born!

My goal was simple: make it easier to hunt for video game deals right from the Raycast command bar. What followed was a rapid journey of prototyping, debugging, and learning. I m excited to share what I learned and hope it will encourage more makers to ship their ideas.
You can view my IsThereAnyDeal (ITAD) Extension on GitHub here! I will launch it when it's approved on the Raycast store :) I'll publish a more in-depth, nerdy guide later. But for now...here's my experience building a Raycast Extension!

What was the very first project you vibecoded with AI?

On Product Hunt, I can see many people launching their products using "vibe-coding tools" like @Lovable , @bolt.new , or@Replit

I reckon many people who created something with them are usually developers who didn't have enough time for building a side idea before, but with AI, they could make it happen.
