This week I wrapped up development on a new Blog Admin interface, a foundational feature for my unified web platform. This new system allows me to easily create, edit, and publish content from a streamlined dashboard. While it’s a major usability win for managing my personal blog on rgodfrey.com, the broader value lies in the design patterns and workflows established through this implementation.

The Blog Admin feature is one of the first modular components in a growing application suite designed to consolidate and manage content, tools, and services across multiple domains: rgodfrey.com, exaas.com, 1timepassword.com, phishfood.io, and laserbakery.com. Each site has its own focus, from personal branding and professional services to cybersecurity and small business tooling, but they will all share the same platform foundation. This consolidation will allow me to manage everything centrally while providing role and tenant based separation under a single, extensible architecture.

During the build, I used AI to augment my workflow, not as a shortcut, but as a thought partner. It helped validate ideas, highlight alternative approaches, and assist in creating repeatable code scaffolding. However, real development still requires experience, foresight, and planning. AI is most valuable when paired with critical thinking and clear goals, it’s not a replacement for expertise, but a tool that can accelerate well defined efforts.

With this blog management milestone complete, I’m shifting focus back to the broader platform roadmap. Upcoming priorities include:

  • Domain-based routing for all integrated websites
  • Multitenancy support and tenant onboarding
  • Host and Admin management for users, roles, tenants, domains, and settings
  • Improved account and identity pages with QR-based MFA setup

This is just the beginning, but it sets the tone for a platform built to grow with my vision...secure, modular, and built for scale.

First, a disclaimer – the entire process of writing a blog post often takes more than a couple of hours, even if you can type eighty words per minute and your writing skills are sharp. I sometimes use AI to assist with refining my content, but not so much as to lose my own thoughts, words, and values. I often refer to this quote when considering how I wish to relay or share my thoughts:
"Your beliefs become your thoughts. Your thoughts become your words. Your words become your actions. Your actions become your habits. Your habits become your values. Your values become your destiny." - Mahatma Gandhi
