01 / About

A bit about me

I'm Thomas, a frontend engineer with a deep understanding of what drives a product. I've built everything from small web apps to webshops on a global scale that reach 1.4 million people a year, designing the UX and building the frontend. I've touched every part of the web, but my real passion is creating good, useful tools and experiences for the people who use them.

Okay, but what else?

A lot! I've had my hands on the whole product cycle: campaign creation at a marketing level, DevOps and my own CI/CD, and server, domain and DNS administration.

Do I use AI to code?

Yes, for inspiration and for the trivial boilerplate we would copy from somewhere else anyway. What I avoid entirely is "vibe coding": mindlessly generating code.

Anything else?

I like running things from scratch to finish, solo or with a team. Linux servers, a bit of Photoshop and video editing, technical writing, and explaining code to people who don’t write it.
