Darko Mesaros

I am a computer person who writes Rust, breaks things on AWS, and collects computers older than most of my audience. By title I'm a Distinguished Developer Advocate, by practice I'm live-coding on Twitch or convincing a 1974 minicomputer to do something useful. I build CLI tools nobody asked for but everyone ends up using, blog about Rust and cloud development right here, and firmly believe the terminal is the best UI ever made. I'm happiest when a demo works on the first try, which almost never happens. I also care deeply about developer productivity and coding assistants. I spend an unreasonable amount of time teaching AI agents to be better coding companions, building MCP servers, and automating everything that stands still long enough. If there's a way to make developers faster and happier, I'm probably already tinkering with it.
