Full-stack dev. DevOps. Builder of whatever I feel like.

I build things end to end — frontends, APIs, the infra underneath, and the occasional weird side project. This is my notebook. I also run MeVo Media →.

About

I’m Melvin — a full-stack developer and devops generalist. I like owning the whole thing: the UI, the API, the database, and the pipeline that ships it. Most of my projects start as “wouldn’t it be fun if…”.

No trackers, no heavy framework here — just small static files, kept fast on purpose (and, yes, running off a little cluster of microcontrollers).
