Hello, World — About This Blog
Welcome. This is where I write about what I build and learn — mostly engineering, DevOps, and self-hosting, with some AI automation and Web3 experiments mixed in.
What to expect
English is the primary language here. I’ll write selectively in Chinese
(简体中文) for topics where a Chinese-speaking audience is better served —
those posts will live under /posts/zh/.
Most posts will be one of a few shapes:
- Case studies — “how I built X”, with the architecture and the mistakes.
- Tutorials — a hard problem, what I tried, and the fix.
- Gotchas & notes — short entries on the small things that cost me a day.
What I write about
- Full-stack engineering — PHP/CodeIgniter, Java/Spring, TypeScript/React, WordPress.
- DevOps & self-hosting — Docker, Traefik, Cloudflare tunnels, NAS/unRaid homelabs.
- AI & automation — Telegram bots, n8n workflows, local LLMs, memory systems.
- Web3 — Solidity, Foundry, ERC-20/721 (learning, honestly framed).
About me
I’m Lee Teong Hoe (Mr Hoelee), a full-stack developer and DevOps engineer based in Malaysia. I build web applications, self-host a ~140-container homelab, and run Hoelee Enterprise — a website design & development business for Malaysian SMEs (with email hosting as a side offering, not the focus).
If you’re a recruiter, a client, or a fellow builder — the posts here are my living portfolio. Start with the latest posts.
