I'm a designer and full-stack developer from Ghent, Belgium. I work at a small but mighty web agency in Antwerp called Spatie. We specialize in Laravel development, and have released a lot of open source packages.
Over the years, I've dabbled in backend development, frontend development, design, and more recently product and project management.
I send an occasional newsletter with personal stories, things I’m working on, and other interesting tidbits I come across online.
This blog has been going strong since 2015. I write and share links about programming, JavaScript, PHP, personal thoughts, and more. Here's a selection of my favorite posts over the years:
- Effective task management with Things How I use Things on daily basis, and how I think about task management in general.
- JavaScript Framework Diet A series on building common functionality with vanilla JS.
- Strawberry jelly Tradeoffs we make with external dependencies.
- Shop built jigs Don't be afraid to build and maintain something yourself.
- React for Vue developers How to React when you're coming from Vue.
- Forget about component lifecycles and start thinking in effects All about React's useEffect.
If you want to get in touch to chat about programming, design, or anything else meaningful or meaningless, you can send me an email or send me a DM on Twitter.
