About
Hello there, and welcome! 👋
It’s Myko, the guy behind the n0rdy blog: a software engineer who loves tech, books, and mountains.
…then something Tookish woke up inside him, and he wished to go and see the great mountains, and hear the pine trees and the waterfalls, and explore the caves, and wear a sword instead of a walking stick…
I don’t believe in “the best programming language/paradigm/framework”, so this blog goes wherever curiosity takes me: from beginner-friendly explainers like Understanding CORS to debugging war stories like What Okta Bcrypt incident can teach us about designing better APIs, with opinions and series sprinkled in between. I do have some preferences, though ;)
I hope you’ll find something useful here, learn a thing or two, or just have a good time reading my posts ☕️
When I’m not writing, I build things: the latest ones are reTrek, a walking app that turns your daily steps into adventures, and Ten Breaths, a Mac app that floats a breathing guide over your screen for the nervous minutes before a meeting.
My contacts are in the sidebar if you have any questions or just want to say “Hi”.

Have fun! =)
