Technical notes on FileMaker development

This is where I think out loud about how I build — structure, architecture, naming discipline, long-term maintainability. The decisions that determine whether a system holds up over time.

There’s no shortage of excellent technical content in the FileMaker community — tutorials, deep dives, technique breakdowns. That’s not the focus here.

Some posts will go into implementation details or specific techniques — but always as a consequence of those principles.

Written with FileMaker developers in mind.

I’ve been building FileMaker systems since 2003. That’s long enough to have developed strong opinions — and long enough to keep refining them. Take what’s useful, adapt it, or discard it.
