Hello World

Welcome to rsaha.tech — the personal site and research notebook of Rohan Saha.

This is the inaugural post, shipped the same day the blog pipeline went live. Here's a quick rundown of how it all works.

The Stack

LayerTech
FrameworkNext.js 15 (App Router, Turbopack)
LanguageTypeScript 5, strict mode
StylingTailwind CSS v4, CSS variables
ContentMDX via next-mdx-remote/rsc
HostingVercel, static output
PublishingCommit .mdx → GitHub → Vercel rebuild

How the Blog Works

Every post lives as an .mdx file under content/blog/. At build time Next.js reads the directory, parses front-matter with gray-matter, and renders each post through MDXRemote with syntax highlighting via rehype-pretty-code.

// src/lib/blog.ts — simplified
export function getAllPosts(): PostMeta[] {
  const files = fs.readdirSync(CONTENT_DIR);
  return files
    .map(parsePost)
    .filter(p => p.published)
    .sort(byDateDesc);
}

No database, no CMS — just markdown and Git.

What's Next

  • repX — deep dives into vulnerability research and reporting
  • trnX — the encrypted communication layer I'm building from scratch
  • AI Red-Teaming — notes on adversarial prompting and LLM security

Stay tuned, or check the Projects and Research sections for what's already there.
