Hi! I’m a freelance web developer from France. After a career in the audio industry, I moved to the web because of how fast it allowed me to build, iterate, and ship great user experiences. React has been a major part of this success story. I’ve also been building and maintaining open-source software since 2007, from bare metal to the cloud, with libraries for React, Next.js, Fastify & Prisma. I love the open sharing of code we find useful, and the community it creates around it.
