Platform of Things

Intro

Contains rants, what’s going on and other bits of stuff.

I started off programming in 2012 when I was 13. I’ve been programming since then in several languages; used many frameworks; done more integrations than I can remember and kept learning everything.

I’m currently a Senior Full-Stack Developer @ LocalStack
