Hi everyone,
I'm JD. I used to do mostly backend stuff, but I've started migrating toward frontend.

I'm a huge fan of Javascript and it's ability to go anywhere, although I mostly write in Typescript these days.

I think privacy is important and I think more support is needed for browsers without Javascript or cookies enabled. I'm currently utilising CSS to make it do things it wasn't meant for, but makes a great alternative to JS.

Also, I have a soft spot for real time communications, such as IRC and it's modern day equivalents.
