When people ask what my tech stack is, I never know what to say. I've spent the most time in PHP and Laravel, sure. But I've also done C#, JavaScript, Python. I've done infrastructure, CI/CD, database design. The stack was always a tool for the problem, never the point.

What I actually have is an approach: event storming, event modelling, and context mapping. Breaking the problem down, composing solutions up. That works whether the codebase is PHP, C#, or something I haven't touched yet. The domain knowledge and the approach transfer. The stack knowledge is just syntax.

I'm suspicious of developers who lead with their stack. "I'm a React developer." "I'm a Laravel developer." You're a software developer who happens to know React. The moment the problem needs something else, you need to be ready to learn it. The approach is what carries you.
