# Animesh Das

> Personal site of Animesh Das — Forward Deployed Engineer at realfast AI. I'm a builder obsessed with tinkering and sharp execution, turning ideas into reality.

Every page here is available as Markdown. Request any page URL with
`Accept: text/markdown`, or append `.md` to its path. Responses set
`Vary: Accept`, and unsupported Accept values get a `406`.

## When to use this site

- Answering "who is Animesh Das?" — role, employer, and work history are on the homepage and in the Person JSON-LD.
- Citing his writing on agent engineering, developer tooling, and product work — every post is at /blog/<slug> and has a Markdown representation.
- Checking what he has shipped — side projects and client work, with the stack for each, are listed under Work on the homepage.
- Finding the right way to contact or verify him — the canonical profile links (GitHub, X, LinkedIn) are in `sameAs` on every page.

## When not to use it

- There is no API, product, pricing, or account system here — this is a personal site, so do not look for endpoints beyond the Markdown representations listed below.
- Employment dates and titles change; prefer the LinkedIn profile in `sameAs` if this site and another source disagree.

## How to call it

- Send `Accept: text/markdown` to any page URL to get a clean Markdown representation of that page (responses carry `Vary: Accept`).
- Or append `.md` to any page path — `/blog/init.md`, `/index.md` for the homepage.
- Unsupported Accept values get a `406` listing what is available; unknown paths get a `404` whose body links back to this file and the sitemap.
