Hey, thanks for stopping by. My name is Redas Jefisovas and I’m a software developer with a background in music and a passion for learning and making things whenever I have the time.

I’m a minimalist IRL and the web is no exception. In an attempt to keep my personal corner of the internet “pure”, I started by writing raw, artisanal, hand-crafted HTML. That lasted exactly until I found myself manually updating a sitemap.xml and hand-stitching RSS timestamps at 2 AM for a single typo fix.

Luckily, sanity prevailed and I installed Astro. Instant sitemap, RSS-feed and just pushing a markdown file to my repo to keep this place updated with new content. And best of all, I get to keep it 100% old-school: vanilla HTML and CSS. Your search engine couldn’t be happier!

neat!

Check out the projects section to see all kinds of things I’m working on. You’ll find various apps and websites, along with highlights from my music career.

While writing isn’t something I’ve done much of before, the blog is where I’m learning to organize my thoughts and communicate them more clearly. As I improve, I hope some of what I share there ends up being useful or interesting to someone else.
