Hello all! I'm a 25 year veteran of the IT wars ;P, and have come over to the dark, er I mean, DevSecOps side. Seriously though as a Systems Administrator/DBA/Network Admin, embracing developmerrnt patterns and learning lots of different programming languages is a challenge. Bu t I love challenges and look forward to learning and sharing.

Hi everyone! I'm an old crusty veteran of web dev who started in 1995 and I've truly seen it all. Learning is still fun though and I'm always looking to get better, but keeping up with tech is harder then ever these days!

Hey everyone! 🙂

Glad to be here! communities like this are a great place to learn, share, and get inspired.

I'm a software engineer who started as a full stack engineer, then shifted into DevOps and infra. Over the last couple of years, I've been diving into generative AI (as many of you probably) and building tools by mixing everything I’ve learned along the way.

Lately I've been experimenting with new AI frameworks, building some open source tools, and writing how-to guides to share what I've been learning. I’m always testing stuff and trying to put together real-world examples and sharing what I have learnt with others.

Let's build and learn together!

I'm Dirk, a freelance software developer specializing in C# and WPF. Currently, I'm working on an e-invoicing app and developing a small simulation game called "Retro Hotel Manager" on the side. I'm excited to explore the community, read interesting posts, share my knowledge, and connect with like-minded developers. 🚀

Hey all! I'm a WordPress developer with 8 years of experience working at a London-based agency—an amazing run that's now wrapping up. I'm stepping into freelancing and excited to see what opportunities are out there.

Over the years, I’ve focused on clean code, custom solutions, and steering clear of plugin bloat and quick fixes. Looking forward to sharing some of what I’ve learned and hopefully contributing something interesting to the community!
