I've been coding for more than half my life; HTML & CSS (20+ years), JavaScript (15+ years), PHP (15+ years), Ruby, go, TypeScript (5+ years), been dabbling in lua, python and zig a handful of times.

Spoken Languges

Swedish is my mother tongue, fluent in English and using that green bird app to learn German.

How did I get here?

It all started sometime in 1999, I had made my first website in Microsoft FrontPage and I somehow got to see the source code. I was hooked. I didn't understand anything of it, nor what it all meant but I was very eager to learn...
A couple of years later I got introduced to ASP (before .NET was a big deal) and I loved it, but I later moved over to PHP, which to this day is one of my favorite programming languages, mostly because it was the catalyst for me to become a better programmer, and also try other languages.
Today I mostly write TypeScript, golang and PHP. Programming is in my DNA, not just for work, I do it for fun, my latest project is a microservice framework written in PHP called Haku.

Some personal notes
