A review of the blog in 2024
Looking back at a year in which almost no blogging took place (310)
My name is Ognjen, but you can call me Oggy.
I make things that run on the web (mostly).
I'm a Staff Software Engineer at Doctolib. We're hiring in Paris, Berlin & Milan.
I am/was the technical co-founder of Supplybunny.
I wrote a guidebook about building a marketplace based on my experience working on Supplybunny.
Before that I worked at a consultancy and freelanced building MVPs for startups (a couple of which raised funding).
I prefer using Rails with Vue, but have used (or am using) lots of other tech.
I try to make tech (both software and the industry) more human-friendly. To that end, I write about product development, ethics, privacy, etc. I also write about interesting technical issues (and solutions) or product ideas I've had.
Get in touch at me@ognjen.io or on LinkedIn if you're keen to talk shop.

Selenium changed the coordinate system to be relative to the center of the viewport instead of the top left corner. (522)
Don't try to be perfect. Try to be prolific. (62)
It might sound obvious, but system design interviews are about the systems and the design. (335)
Custom-tailored TODO app
Items tracked | In development | Yearly Cost |

~10k | ~1 year on and off | ~$13 |
Ooradee is a TODO app that I built to replicate the system I had on paper. It's key feature is different time horizons allowing me to schedule todos on specific dates but also for weeks and months in general. It also has a specialized interface for review helping me track progress on things I'm working on.
It's a PWA on Rails 6 with webpacker and Vue. It's installable on desktop and mobile. It can send notifications to Chrome. It runs ActionCable for background updates.
In progress. It's my testbed for new tech and I've learnt a lot about design from it.
