I build deterministic systems
so developers can trust their tooling.
I’m Viaan — a developer obsessed with automation, clean pipelines, and making complex systems feel boringly
reliable.
viaandev is where I document the experiments, breakdowns, and rebuilds along the way.
This isn’t a tutorial farm or an AI-generated content mill. It’s a working log for real-world engineering: the decisions, tradeoffs, and “oh, that’s why it was failing” moments behind building automation-heavy products.
Expect posts on:
- Designing and tearing down deployment pipelines with intent, not vibes.
- Serverless architectures with things like Cloudflare Workers and GitHub Actions.
- Deterministic, user-owned tooling instead of opaque black-box magic.
- Developer experience and UX for people who actually ship code.
I care about three things: clarity, ownership, and evidence. If a pipeline can’t explain itself with logs and status codes, I probably won’t trust it. If a system hides too much behind “magic,” I’d rather rebuild it in the open.
You’ll see that philosophy in most posts here — I try to show enough of the reasoning and failure modes that someone else could adapt the approach, not just copy-paste a config.
If you like building systems that are:
- Automated, but still understandable at 2 a.m.
- Secure, without sprinkling secrets in random dashboards.
- Extensible, because future-you will absolutely have new ideas.
…you’ll probably feel at home here.
