Hi, I'm Mikkel
Bridging Curiosity and Code
I've always been curious about how things work in the world of technology. This space is where I share that curiosity with you — making computer science approachable, structured, and engaging, whether you're just starting out or deepening your knowledge.
About Me
Hi, I'm Mikkel Bayard Rasmussen. My journey into computer technology began at a young age with curiosity and a bit of tinkering. Years later, that curiosity led to a Master's degree in Civil Engineering, specializing in computer technology, which I completed in 2019. But really, that was just the beginning. I thrive on innovation and creativity, always looking to turn challenges into opportunities for learning and growth. Through this blog, I’m excited to share that journey with you, breaking down the essentials of computer science and making complex ideas more approachable for everyone, regardless of where you're starting from. This space is more than a blog; it's a community for learning, sharing, and growing together. Whether you're new to computer science or looking to dive deeper, I hope you’ll find something valuable here. Feel free to ask questions, suggest topics, and engage. Let’s explore the ever-evolving world of technology together. Looking forward to learning alongside you.
Skills
Typescript
My preferred language for developing React and NextJS applications, utilizing strict typing features to establish reliable code boundaries. This practice ensures maintainability as the codebase grows and simplifies refactoring complex structures.
React
Focused on web development using React and the NextJS framework, specializing in server-side rendering and client-state management. This enables building applications with fast response times, directly improving the overall user experience.
AI Workflows & Integration
Designing custom automation pipelines using LLMs and agentic workflows to streamline team productivity. In this context, building specialized micro-tools is a key practice to connect distinct services and automate repetitive tasks across the workplace.
Performance optimization
Honed through developing e-commerce systems, where I focus on optimizing code paths, caching strategies, and asset delivery. Ensuring efficient client-side performance is crucial for maintaining high engagement and user retention.
Agentic AI (Claude & Antigravity)
Employing agentic LLM tools as my primary development drivers, utilizing Claude Code for professional projects and Antigravity in my personal workspace. This practice involves gathering codebase history and execution data to optimize prompt instructions and improve model outcomes.
Docker
Regularly utilizing Docker for containerized deployment in professional and personal environments. This approach ensures runtime consistency across development and production systems, making the release cycle more reliable.
