About TIL

Today I Learned is a small, dated archive of things one of us picked up during the week — code snippets, AWS quirks, a Postgres incantation, a Figma keystroke, the occasional rant. Each post is short, dated, and signed.

How posts are written

Each TIL is a markdown file under content/til/ with frontmatter for title, slug, date, and author. Code blocks use fenced syntax with a language hint and are syntax-highlighted at build time.

Search, navigate, share

  • ⌘K opens the search modal — fuzzy match across title, author, and body.
  • Random bit redirects you to a random TIL — handy for slow afternoons.
  • Each post has a permalink, a Tweet button, and a raw markdown view if you want to copy the source.

Why a microblog?

Long posts are hard to start. Three-line posts are easy. The whole point is to capture small things while they’re still warm — and to build up a corpus the team can grep through six months later.
