Hey, I'm Lakshmi.

I've been building software for nearly two decades — from ops and infrastructure to full-stack SaaS.

These days, I'm using Claude Code to do the work of a small team — developing products, deploying them to production, and distributing them to customers. All solo.

I call it the 3 Ds. This site collects what I've learned: workflows, experiments, and occasionally, the faceplants.

I help technical founders develop, deploy, and distribute their SaaS using Claude Code — without hiring a team.

The 3 Ds

Develop

Build your product with Claude Code as your co-pilot. Not boilerplate generation — real systems thinking.

  • Hooks that auto-format and lint every file Claude touches
  • CLAUDE.md patterns that keep your agent on track
  • Multi-session workflows for complex features

Deploy

Run production solo. No DevOps team, no $500/month cloud bills, no 2 AM panic attacks.

  • $20-50/month stacks that actually work
  • K3s deployments without the Kubernetes complexity
  • Monitoring and incident response for one-person teams

Distribute

Get your product to customers. Content, reach, distribution channels — all powered by Claude Code.

  • Daily essays drafted and atomized across platforms
  • LinkedIn, Substack, Medium, Reddit — one workflow, multiple channels
  • Audience building without hiring a marketing team

Want to ship your SaaS without hiring a team?

I set up Claude Code workflows that cover all 3 Ds — developing your product, deploying to production, and distributing it to customers.

You walk away with systems you can run solo.

Ideal for:

  • Technical founders (5-15 years experience) building their first SaaS
  • Experienced engineers who've never shipped their own product

(No agency retainers. No hiring. Just you, with Claude Code as leverage.)
