Re:Ask HN: Could you share your personal website here? on Thursday January 15, 2026 @04:51AM (#46630354)

personal website, a space for me to tinker, jot down thoughts and share fun experiments & random projects i built (solving my own problems) :)

Haha, It ended up filtering out ~70% of the content, which makes me rethink using LinkedIn altogether.

thanks :) mine is manual + some of them, automated. i built a custom telegram bot which periodically/on-demand asks for data points, run basic algos to calculates these stats and push to realtime firebase storage.

Re:Ask HN: If not Medium, then what? on Tuesday January 18, 2022 @05:53AM (#29977431)
Ghost - If you are really serious about writing and monetizing it. Not useful if you are not earning from your writing Medium - If you are gonna write once in a year. or. you are happy putting your articles behind their paywall

dev.to - If you don't have a niche, just writing for the community whenever you feel

hashnode - If you prefer having custom domain, writing for beginners, love SEO, want to build personal brand, and a bit serious about technical writing.

SSG + Github Page - If you love getting your hands dirty in coding & willing to spend sometime to learn a new tech. (plus point, you have full freedom to design it in your own way)

- My self-hosted blog built with NextJs. https://pankajtanwar.in/blogs

I earn enough and half.
Re:Ask HN: Would you like me to review your resume? on Wednesday December 22, 2021 @08:16AM (#29648885)
LGTM, would like to highlight a couple of things - Projects are too good. I would appreciate some additional info (github stars, HN, quick demo or how it looks for all your projects) - As the heading says, freelance engineer (but could not find anything on your portfolio to trust this) - Sorry for being rude but a `software engineer` using no-code platform for his own portfolio website is turning me off.

------ Would love to hear your inputs for my portfolio https://pankajtanwar.in/ (I know, its not the best, still improving on it)

not start-ups but a side hustle -

https://bestresources.co -> a place for people to share their personal resources.

Web is crowdy. So, i built this for people to share their resources (that they used while learning).

Re:Ask HN: What do you use to switch between projects on Tuesday November 30, 2021 @12:31AM (#29389279)
May be not in the exact same condition as yours but I like to keep a separate space for each side project. Suppose, I am working on my portfolio website[1], I switch the view in VS code, Notion, Chrome & terminal. Similarly, for my another side project "system design academy"[2].

Still, struggling to manage multiple projects at the same time. I use linux, couldn't find any tools. Recommendations are appreciated.
