Hey, I'm Kutay!
Welcome to The Deterministic. I share some interesting stuff about mathematics, computer science, and life in general.

Some reflection on writing
Writing is awesome. It allows you to clear your mind, your thoughts, your ideas by forcing you to think about them properly and write about them, speak about them.

Projects

Obsidian as CMS
Using Obsidian as a CMS for this blog.
I’ve created a plugin for Obsidian that allows me to upload the current note I’m working on to the DB that this blog is served from. It also uploads all of the images in the note to an S3 object storage.

Catter the Blog
A minimal and responsive blog created with Next.js, MDX, TailwindCSS, and Shadcn's UI components.
I decided to open source my entire blog. I plan to write a blog post detailing why I came to this decision, but for now, you can read, fork, and contribute to my blog through the repository.

Online Turkish Slang Dictionary
A website to view and search Turkish slang words and phrases.
For my second project centering web development and UI design, I decided to create a dictionary for sland phrases and words in Turkish. I created a input for searching and designed components around it.

Purple Startpage
A starpage website made with Next.js for people that want to be quick on the web.
How to do UI design as a web developer takes some time to learn. While coding this website, I also decided to other web app projects, and this is one of the first. It’s a simple and an elegant way to surf the web.
