I am Parish. I build backend systems and web applications, and this site is where I slow down and explain the mechanisms underneath them. The focus is the path from the code we write to the systems that run it: HTTP and ASGI, database planning and execution, Linux scheduling, memory, and the architecture that holds those pieces together.
Start with something a developer actually uses, then go deeper into the mechanism.
