Welcome to the first post on Compiling Miles!

This blog is a new project where I plan to document my travels and my coding projects. The name itself is a blend of two of my passions: software engineering (Compiling) and exploring the world (Miles).

The Tech Stack

This blog is built with a modern, high-performance stack:

• Next.js 14: For static site generation (SSG) and a great developer experience.
• TypeScript: For type safety and robust code.
• Tailwind CSS: For rapid, utility-first styling.
• Markdown/MDX: For writing content with the ease of a text editor.
• AWS Amplify & S3: For scalable hosting and media storage.

What to Expect

Here, you'll find a mix of content:

1. Travel Guides: In-depth articles about the places I visit.
2. Coding Tutorials: Practical guides on web development, cloud architecture, and more.
3. Project Showcases: Walkthroughs of personal projects I'm building.

Stay tuned for more adventures!
