Hello, World

$ echo “Hello, World”
This is my first blog post. I built this site with Astro, Tailwind CSS, and a terminal aesthetic because the terminal is where I spend most of my time anyway.
Why a terminal theme?
As a developer, the terminal is home. The blinking cursor, the monospace font, the green-on-black — it all feels right. Most personal sites look the same: gradient hero, card layouts, smooth animations. I wanted something different.
Something that says: “I actually write code for a living.”
The stack
- Astro 6 — ships zero JavaScript by default
- Tailwind CSS v4 — CSS-based config, minimal and fast
- MDX — blog posts as markdown with JSX superpowers
- Shiki — syntax highlighting that matches the terminal vibe
const site = {
name: "przemyslawpaziewski.dev",
stack: ["astro", "tailwind", "mdx"],
vibes: "terminal",
};
console.log(`Welcome to ${site.name}`);
What’s next
I’ll be writing about building products as a solo developer, frontend engineering, and the journey of shipping AI-powered apps. Stay tuned.
Thanks for reading. If you want to follow along, find me on X.
