The Tech
Behind the Craft

From JS libraries to note-taking tools, here's what fuels my work on a daily basis.

Developer Tools

React and React Native

JS Libraries

Two fantastic libraries for building component based user interfaces across web and mobile. Wouldn't pick anything else for building full-blown applications.
TypeScript

Language

A strongly typed programming language that kept me sane along all those years. Touch it once and there's no going back.
GraphQL

Language

Powerful tool in combination with Apollo when building large-scale apps, especially when building for multiple clients with slightly different data requirements.
Next.js

JS Framework

Great framework to build performant large-scale applications and websites with serverside rendering and many other features.
Strapi

CMS

Go-to headless CMS system, offering a GraphQL layer, impressive flexibility and a fair pricing model.
NX

Tooling

Allowing for an optimized monorepo experience and speeding up many tasks in every-day development.
Tailwind CSS

CSS Framework

A CSS framework that has proven itself useful over and over again for rapid prototyping.
Astrojs

Static Site Generator

The framework behind this personal website. Perfectly suited for small- to medium-sized content driven websites, offering lots of flexibility.
WebStorm

Frontend IDE

Powerful coding environment that always felt most intuitive and effective to me.

Productivity

Obsidian

Notes

In my opinion the most powerful note-taking tool in existence when taking full advantage of available plugins and working with a suitable structure such as the Second-Brain PARA Method. Also, it works great for documentation.
LLMs

AI Assistance

For both productivity and inspiration I've integrated AI models into my workflow. I like to use cloud based solutions such as Copilot for coding, and locally running models to assist with Obsidian-related tasks.
