Front-end engineer

Hello there! Remco here

I am a recovering ex-Magento developer and currently building open source software at Pleio. Primarily working with TypeScript & Next.js, have done a little Python, Shell & Lua, and want to learn Go, OCaml, and, and and and.... ⌛

Skills

Techstack

I love to build with NextJS and TypeScript. Besides that, I have dabbled a little bit in Python, Lua, Svelte, and Bash. I find all technologies interesting and am planning on playing around with Go, eventually transitioning into full-stack (real full stack, not just JS + CRUD). I used to work on macOS but I switched to Linux (Pop!_OS) and do not think I'll be going back. Linux is so much faster, macOS feels is sluggish.

TypeScript

Because I love compilers

Hello, in 2024, using JavaScript is frowned upon, although I still enjoy using dollar signs, aka jQuery. However, my time is not precious and I love wasting hours messing with compilers and .tsconfigs, so TypeScript it is:any.

NextJS

But exploring Qwik, Solid, or Svelte is starting to itch

Fun fact I actually started the world of modern frameworks by learning NextJS, React only came during my employmenet. I think NextJS has a better DX but they are one pot nat as we say in the dutchland. Also interessted in Svelte, Qwik, Solid or any other signal based framework.

React

Goes hand in hand with NextJS ofcourse.

I prefer the DX and handy features NextJS offers, but i'm well aware that in the coorporate world most will be longlasting React projects not finding the need to upgrade to Next

Projects

As any hobby developer I tend to start a lot of projects but never finish themotion. This site for instance, is probably the 10th itteration. Althrough most projects are not done or even abbandoned, they are showworthy.
