Hi, Im Salma đź‘‹
I’m a versatile Frontend Software Engineer passionate about creating meaningful digital experiences. I spend most of my time working with React, Next.js, and modern web tooling, while occasionally wandering into backend systems, Linux, and homelab experiments.
This blog explores programming, productivity, and the small lessons life teaches along the way. I’m currently experimenting with AI-assisted coding using Claude Code, exploring context engineering while still maintaining ownership of my reasoning.
