I Built My Portfolio Three Times Before It Felt Like Mine
I built two normal portfolios, but neither felt like me. So I started over and turned my portfolio into Boussen OS, a desktop-like experience.

I Thought My Blog’s Domain Setup Was Done. It Wasn’t.
Bousslog was already live when I realized the domain setup still wasn’t right. I had to fix the www redirect, separate the CMS, and make sure search engines only saw the public site.

I tried building a local-first system for money, time, tasks, and phone control. One microservice showed me how big the idea really was.

I wanted an easier way to publish on Bousslog without paying for another server or moving the site to WordPress. This is how I ended up using TinaCMS and shaping it around the workflow I actually needed.
