BuildWithRani
My hub for documenting the systems I build and the decisions behind them.
✨INTRODUCTION
The story behind BuildWithRani
BuildWithRani began with a simple need: one place to document the systems I was building and the decisions behind them.
I realized that building isolated features wasn’t enough — I wanted to understand how systems are structured end to end, from APIs to UI flows.
That led me to build BuildWithRani as a content-driven platform, intentionally kept simple and static to prioritize clarity, structure, and long-term ownership.
The site is designed to evolve alongside my projects, serving as a living record of how I approach building and documenting software systems.
