I've seen things you people wouldn't believe... PC Revolutions, C compilers clacking huge Floppy Disks , Lisp Machine Nirvana, Unix Wars, building an early ISP, Metro Wireless, #Startups that went down, Hardware Image Processing, Objective C training from Brad Cox, first C++ Conference, unreadable Perl, lots of Python, Ruby, #Clojure and now back to #Python, #DevOps, #AWSCommunityBuilder, #Serverless, #Sourdough Software System and Cloud Architectures. Not time to die!

We're the team behind LibreWeddingPlanner, a #FOSS web application to help individuals organize their wedding.

This project was born to fulfill the necessity of one of its developers, and ultimately we decided to make it free software under the #AGPL license. We're on the verge of releasing a public, free, and add-free instance for the community, so if you're interested, stay tuned!

Built with love with #ruby, #rails, #react and #nodejs.

Freelance #pragmatic & #user-focussed #webdeveloper. Relatively full stack with #Ruby. Blogs occasionally: http://murb.nl/blog he/him / hij/hem
