Skills
Web development
When I first started learning how to make websites, Internet Explorer 6 was just released. I didn’t like PHP, but then Ajax came and allowed us to build much better apps.
Years later, with Node.js for the back-end and TypeScript’s awesome type system, I think web is a platform with great future.

Game development
I started programming because I wanted to create games and I loved Star Trek. I learned Delphi and DirectX, found some 3ds max models of ships and made simple space simulators.
After years of focusing on other projects, I’d like to use web standards to create a game I can play everywhere.

Projects.
Open source
Although there’s a lot of great open-source tools and libraries, sometimes I need functionality that doesn’t exist yet, or existing packages are unsatisfactory in some way. My philosophy is to create intuitive interfaces while taking full advantage of TypeScript’s awesome type system.
