  • Let's document things! Documentation benefits everyone.
  • I operate in a judgement-free zone.
  • The phrase "intent vs impact" is of high importance to me.
  • I prefer a direct approach, but I understand that others might prefer different approaches.

About this website

I frequently re-build my portfolio in order to learn new techniques. It currently passes through Cloudflare, is measured by Clarity, and is built with Webflow. It previously used Next.js (React), integrated with Sanity CMS, and was hosted on Vercel. I plan to use Zola next time.

  • I've built this site using Nuxt (Vue), Squido, Middleman, Next.js (React), Svelte, Riot.js, Angular, Polymer project, and Meteor.
  • I've integrated with dozens of different CMS like Sanity, Storyblok, Netlify CMS, Wordpress, Ghost, Kirby, Sanity, Forestry, Prismic, Contentful, Strapi, and Dato.
  • I have experience with CSS frameworks like Tailwind, Chakra, Bootstrap, Material, Bulma, and others.
  • The site has been hosted on GitLab and GitHub Pages, Vercel, Netlify, Firebase, Bitbucket, VPS, and home-grown server hardware using Docker, TurnKey Core Linux, or Vagrant.
  • My preferred automation and monitoring platforms are Cypress.io, RequestMetrics, Hubspot, BrowserStack, and AHRefs.
