The Seeley Coder

Welcome to my blog. I’m Jon Seeley — software engineer, father, and occasional gamer who has been writing code professionally since the early days of .NET 1.0. Over more than twenty years in this field I’ve worked across industries ranging from insurance and finance to retail and DIY crafting, held nearly every role the profession has to offer, and learned most of the important lessons the hard way.

I write here about what I’ve picked up along the way — everything from ASP.NET Core internals to the soft-skills side of this career that nobody puts in a curriculum. The technical stuff and the human stuff, because in my experience you can’t really separate them.

I also just finished writing a book — the long-form version of the things I keep telling junior engineers over and over. More on that soon.
