🎯 John Munn's Personal Blog

Technical Leader | Engineering Strategist | Team Builder | Dungeon Master

Welcome to the repository powering johnmunn.tech – where technical leadership meets strategic storytelling, and where I share insights on building scalable solutions and high-performing teams.

🚀 About This Blog

This isn't just another tech blog. It's a place where I blend analytical precision with creative problem-solving, drawing from my experience as both a technical leader and a Dungeon Master. Here, you'll find thoughts on:

  • Technical Leadership - Building and scaling engineering teams
  • Strategic Thinking - Architecting solutions for complex challenges
  • Innovation - Exploring emerging technologies and methodologies
  • Team Building - Creating cultures of excellence and collaboration
  • Problem Solving - Applying creative approaches to technical challenges

✨ What Makes This Different

Just as a good D&D campaign requires strategic planning, compelling storytelling, and adaptive leadership, successful engineering organizations need the same blend of skills. I bring this unique perspective to every post, combining:

  • Real-world engineering experience
  • Strategic business thinking
  • Creative problem-solving approaches
  • Team dynamics and leadership insights

🌐 Domain redirect (www → apex)

The site uses johnmunn.tech (no www) as the canonical URL. To avoid redirect loops and CORS errors:

  1. In Vercel Dashboard → your project → SettingsDomains
  2. Set johnmunn.tech (apex) as the primary domain — it must not redirect to www
  3. Add www.johnmunn.tech and set it to Redirect to johnmunn.tech
  4. Do not add any redirect from johnmunn.tech to www

That way only www → apex redirects happen at the edge; apex never redirects to www.
