About

Hi there

I'm Tuan Anh Huynh (alias Leo at work), a software engineer from Vietnam. I have a passion for all things Javascript. I enjoy building eCommerce software and stuff related to web dev. I work mainly with Typescript, React, NodeJS, Remix, and TailwindCSS.

I started this blog as a way to document and share stuff I have learned and found useful as a software engineer. Building and writing things down is a great way for me to solidify my understanding of new concepts and ideas. I hope my blog could be a helpful resource for fellow devs who interested in web dev, eCommerce, and related technologies.

I would be highly appreciated if you could leave your comments and thoughts on what I have written .
