Web

In web-programming, I specialize in framework-less applications with minimal library dependencies for use in business, science, and entertainment.
  • Environments: PHP, Node.js, C++/FastCGI
  • Business and scientific appplications: web applications, Websocket realtime applications, APIs, data exchange and conversion, media presentations and web-based animations
  • Games and media: animation and game programming, Canvas (pixi.js), WebGL (three.js), shader programming

Systems

In systems programming, I'll work with you to develop or extend custom applications on Linux server platforms and on micro-controllers.
  • Environments: C/C++, Node.js
  • Linux-based server environments: custom daemons, data interchange services, automation, API servers
  • MCUs: ESP8266 and ESP32 embedded firmwares, other Arduino platforms

Games

In games programming, I can help you with custom C/C++ codebases (other languages, too) to implement a variety of features.
  • Environments: C/C++, OpenGL, HLSL
  • Game servers and network code, infrastructure services, data storage, blockchain integration, user account management, load balancing
  • Game code: custom C/C++ projects, Unreal Engine customization, conversion and art pipeline tooling, shader programming, gameplay programming, UI programming

About Me

I have been writing programs since I was 10 years old, starting out with BASIC and Assembly on the C64 and Amiga. My background includes a variety of programming languages and architectures. These days my work happens mostly on C++, PHP, and JavaScript. I have an academic background in bio informatics, bio-medical research, and a lot of experience writing business appplications. I enjoy participating in game jams like Ludum Dare. Overall I'm an allrounder who likes both exploratory programming and deep work.
  • Programming style: minimal dependencies, avoid frameworks where feasible, flat class hierarchies or even no OOP at all, preference for working on custom codebases
  • Freelancing: I am available for remote projects and occasional in-person meetings. My daily rate is 640€.
