Hello world

Adam. That's my name.

I wrangle with the idiosyncrasies of JavaScript, behold the wonder of TypeScript and can always depend on ole faithful Ruby.

I love building products that delight - at the moment I have a special interest in building developer tooling. I am currently working with with the lovely people at Deliveroo.

Things I have written

• TypeScript const assertions FTW

  One of my all time favourite TypeScript features in an extremely tiny nutshell.

• Reflecting on the past year

  Sometimes bad things happen to you. Now I've gotten just a tiny little bit better at dealing with them.

• Beware the class level instance var

  A brief article examining some of the weirdnesses of class level instance variables in Ruby (who knew?). Plus, an examination of eigenclasses.

• Transitioning to Neovim

  A quick guide on how to transition away from Vim to Neovim

• Introspecting a remote GraphQL schema

  A guide on how to setup client side mocking of a remote GraphQL schema using Apollo & TypeScript.

• Travels in Ruby part I

  Part of my Travels in Ruby series. This time around we deal with a very real Ruby problem: sometimes things don't work out the way that you expected.
