About

I go by Śūnya (shoo-nya) — a self-taught, neurodivergent developer who has been building things for the web since 1999. I started in an era when style was an argument, JavaScript was a novelty, and accessibility was rarely a conversation at all. A lot has changed - at the same time, not enough has.

My work sits at the intersection of front-end engineering, inclusive design, and the kind of stubborn curiosity that makes you rewrite a component three times just to understand it properly. I care deeply about building software that works for everyone — not as a compliance checkbox, but as a basic act of respect.

This site is a place for my blitherings: the things I'm learning, the patterns I observe and find interesting, the opinions I've formed slowly and am happy to have challenged. Topics drift across accessibility, assistive technology, CSS, architecture, neurodiversity, and the occasional philosophical tangent about what "good software" even means.

If something here is useful to you, or wrong enough that you want to argue about it, I'm glad either way.
