Sixteen years old and a naïve devout typical Sunni Iraqi boy, I had a big solid identity with all sorts of strongly-held beliefs. An average Iraqi teenager, with a regular mix of nationalism, belonging, and a general tribal tendency of connectedness with everything and everyone around me, although with a dash of rebelion.

Trying out Svelte as a React Developer
I have been so excited to try out Svelte v3 since it came out in late April. But I wasn’t sure what to build. I built TodoMVC app and it didn’t feel enough to test out a framework, took me around 30 mins. Plus, it’s already built by Svelte team and this made it feel […]
