$ whoami
I'm Emran — a backend engineer working primarily in .NET / C#, with a growing Go habit. I care about systems that can be observed, deployed safely, and explained honestly.
Day to day that means APIs, data access that respects the database, CI/CD pipelines that gate on tests, and knowing which tools not to reach for. This site practices what it preaches: it is a thin client of a real, production-deployed .NET API, and every number on it is real.

## Philosophy
- →Prove, don't claim.
- → Proportionate architecture — knowing when not to use a tool is the senior signal.
- → Never half-built. Deployed beats planned.
- → Honest beats impressive.
## How this site works
Every byte here is served by a .NET 10 API — content ingested from git, metrics collected by custom middleware into SQLite, deployed by Dokploy behind Traefik with tests gating every deploy. The full write-up: How this portfolio works.
