Daniel Kwok

Fullstack Software Engineer

Who am I

Software engineer from Malaysia who has a passion for building good, reliable, maintainable, high performing software.

Writing

I write frequently on my blog, https://medium.com/@laymanExplained. I write in a style for myself to read, and sometimes I get lucky, and it resonates with others. Some of my best published work are The system design handbook and Layman Explained: Git.

Code

My github is https://github.com/danielkwok21, but nowadays most of the repos are private (either to prevent myself from leaking private keys, or because they're commercial projects). If you're interested in seeing what I can build, I recommend you to visit my portfolio.
