Hi! 👋 I'm a Backend developer specializing in creating libraries and tools for Node.js.

My experience at one of the IT agencies significantly changed my approach to development tools. For a long time, we used one of the popular backend frameworks, but its large-scale update backed us into a corner. The authors completely redesigned the architecture and forced an awkward TypeScript integration without covering the functionality of older versions. The migration turned out to be so painful that projects simply got stuck on old Node.js versions. The update was half-baked, pull requests hung for months, and forking the framework with its huge dependency tree was an overwhelming task.

The deeper we dug into the problem, the clearer it became that relying on someone else's code, which can change at any moment, isn't the most sustainable strategy. Maintaining third-party dependencies often takes just as much effort as writing your own solution. That's why we decided to create our own ecosystem of Node.js modules, which we now actively use. We're betting on reliability and predictability.

You might notice that the documentation for most of my npm packages is in Russian. Since Russian is my native language, writing documentation in it allows me to keep it detailed, accurate, and up-to-date. Maintaining a synchronized English translation for every update takes a significant amount of time that I prefer to spend on improving the code itself.

If you don't speak Russian, modern browser translators or AI tools handle technical Russian extremely well. Please feel free to auto-translate the docs. Note that you are always welcome to open Issues and ask questions in English.
