Hello, world!

As this my first post, please let me introduce myself. I am a software developer with 8 year of full-time experience. Most of the time I use .NET with Azure cloud, and recently I'm learning React and React Native. I work at cloudstate.eu and at the same time I'm CTO of longevity oriented startup (PL link).

Recently I run across an inspiring conference about blogging so I decided to finally start a blog, what I was postponing for a long time.

But why?

My motivations are summarized by Andrzej in What if you start your own dev blog?, and I'm sure that logging solutions of day-to-day development challenges may be beneficial for someone facing the same problem. It would be ridiculous to waste time twice for the same problem. In fact, every developer use online search to look for solutions and I do the same.

Also, I would like to have an online "portfolio" as a software developer. I don't want to be anonymous anymore to anyone who would like to verify my skills.

Challenge accepted

Supposedly it can only take 10 minutes to create a post - it was repeated a lot at the conference. This time I stayed at work a while longer and almost succeeded with the clock, although it's a very simple post without a line of code.

I'm taking the challenge with hope that it would be beneficial for the community.
