Code

Code shown in posts is governed by the license of its original source, usually the project repository the post links to. The site’s design system is published under the MIT license as the @half-built packages. The blog’s own source code is not licensed for reuse.

No warranties, use at your own risk

This blog documents personal hobby projects. It is not professional engineering, electrical, or safety advice. The projects described here involve tools, electricity, soldering irons, and other things that can hurt you or damage property. If you attempt anything you read here, you do so at your own risk.

Posts reflect what worked for me at the time. I don’t guarantee they’re complete, current, or correct.

Posts link to other websites. Those sites are not under my control and a link is not an endorsement. Their terms and privacy practices are their own.
