Hands-on practice, not just theory
A working log of practical labs across Linux, Docker, CI/CD, AWS, Terraform, and observability.
Linux & Shell Foundations
Daily-driving Ubuntu and Debian for development. SSH key auth, tmux workflows, and shell scripting for repeatable tasks.
Docker & Compose
Containerized full stack apps with multi-stage builds, healthchecks, and a Compose stack for local dev parity with prod.
CI/CD with GitHub Actions
Pipelines that run typecheck, lint, tests, build artifact, and deploy to Vercel and AWS on every push.
AWS Foundations
Hands-on with EC2, S3, IAM, Route 53, and CloudWatch. Hardening security groups, least-privilege policies, and cost guards.
Terraform IaC
Codifying infrastructure with Terraform modules and remote state. Reproducible environments without ClickOps.
Monitoring & Observability
Prometheus + Grafana + Loki stack for metrics, dashboards, and log aggregation. Alerting on real failure modes, not noise.
