Now
What I'm doing now
A snapshot of what has my attention this month — in the tradition of /now pages. Updated when things change, not on a fixed schedule.
Last updated: May 23, 2026
Building
- Smart Time Tracker — Tauri 2.0 + Rust desktop app with Claude CLI session logging and ClickUp sync
- Headless WooCommerce — ongoing maintenance, perf, and DX work on the open-source toolkit
- BlazeCommerce client storefronts — Next.js + Typesense headless migrations
Learning
- Rust ownership and lifetimes — deeper than "I can read it"
- Tauri 2.0 internals — IPC, plugin system, packaging on Windows + macOS
- Workflow automation patterns — turning repeat tasks into Claude CLI + scripted pipelines
Reading & Following
- r/webdev, r/nextjs, r/rust, r/woocommerce on Reddit — for real-world threads, not curated content
- LinkedIn posts from senior engineers and founders in the e-commerce / dev tooling space
- Release notes and GitHub discussions for the tools I ship with (Next.js, Tauri, WooCommerce)
Off-keyboard
- Mountain biking — hitting trails and exploring terrain on two wheels
- Bodyweight & core training — pushups, pull-ups, planks, squats, calf raises (no gym)
- Nintendo Switch OLED when the build queue is clear — Pokémon Mystery Dungeon DX, Pokémon FireRed, Pokémon UNITE, Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm, Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm 4: Road to Boruto
- Choir service — Tenor 2 in the Catholic Church choir
- DeFi and staking — exploring protocols and passive-income setups on the side
