I use this space to share ideas, lessons, and occasional reflections on engineering and leadership that might help others on a similar path.
Extensions change what Pi can do. The TUI changes what Pi feels like to use. Build a custom footer with live status, a personal theme, and a prompt-picker overlay - and learn where the customization surface ends.
