RSS FeedHi, I'm Aman, a technical writer and a programmer.
Right now, I am working as a documentation engineer at 
Expo, where I turn complicated things using docs-as-code first approach
to help people build React Native apps.
Before Expo, I was a Senior Content Developer at 
Vercel and a Developer Advocate at 
Draftbit. I've been writing about programming since 2017, with more than 150 articles across 30+ publications.
This blog is where I write things down as I figure them out and my thoughts. See what I'm up to on my /now page, or learn more about me on my /about page.
