I was on the Talking Kotlin Podcast talking about systems design and Kotlin as a backend language! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XTeEIJ170KE&t=1s

I wrote a nice blog post about work our engineering team at Doordash has been doing. https://doordash.engineering/2021/05/04/migrating-from-python-to-kotlin-for-our-backend-services/

Today we are going to talk about how to design your system. A lot of posts and articles have been written about this, and I wanted to throw my opinion out there as well. So how do you build a scalable system for your startup? A lot of startups decide to go with one of the standard monolith/all-in-one frameworks for their projects, for example Ruby-on-Rails or Django. The allure of these systems is quite understandable.

So this exists I am testing a new static site generator, because I didn’t like the old one. Hopefully I like this one more!
