Hi, My name is Tam (a.k.a The Duck Lead)
Welcome to my Digital coffee shop
A Little About Myself
I’m a passionate software engineer who loves building silly things and exploring everything related to software and computer science. I also enjoy drawing, creating pixel art, making video games, and learning about graphics programming.
With years of experience as a Web Developer, I enjoy solving real-world problems with elegant code. I thrive in fast-paced environments and love turning ideas into working products that people actually enjoy using.
Why The Duck Lead?
I think everyone has their own goals, some want to become a CTO, others aim to be a tech lead. But for me, the highest position I aspire to is becoming a duck owner.
Own a farm. Lead a flock of ducks. That’s the dream!
Why Go and HTMX?
I’ve built my own websites using the JavaScript tech stack before, but the constant changes and complexity of the JS ecosystem made me look for something simpler and more stable. I wanted a stack that’s fast, straightforward, and enjoyable to work with.
That’s why I chose Go. Pairing it with HTMX lets me keep things minimal while still building dynamic, responsive web apps without the heavy frontend overhead.
Where is this website hosted?
On my homelab laptop at home. Why? Because it's cheap, fast, and fun!
I'm using Fedora Server to host this website, along with a small reverse proxy to expose it to the internet.
