Why REFLEX

This website is a collection of my thoughts and experiences on the topic of supply chain security converted into dip-in education.

The goal is to help developers grok security and supply chain security concepts in a way thats developer-focused, not security or compliance buzzword loaded

Much of what’s here is just a different take on good software engineering practices.
