About
This site collects practical, interview-oriented engineering notes: system design write-ups, coding patterns, and real interview experiences, alongside an automated daily digest of engineering blog posts from top tech companies.
What's here
- System Design — architecture and distributed systems interview prep.
- Coding — algorithms, patterns, and interview problems.
- Interview Experiences — real interview notes, formats, and lessons.
- Engineering Digest — a daily, automatically generated summary of posts from engineering blogs (AWS, GitHub, Dropbox, Netflix, and others), unrelated to the manually written sections above.
How it's built
The site is a static Astrosite. All manually written content is Markdown/MDX under version control — publishing an article is a git push, nothing more. The Engineering Digest is produced by a separate Python pipeline that fetches, summarizes, and commits Markdown on a daily schedule; the website imports that Markdown at build time. There is no server, no production database, and no user accounts — seedocs/ARCHITECTURE.mdfor the full picture.
