I'm a big believer in:
- โจ Clean, DRY code - easy to read, easy to update
- ๐งฉ Modularity - write it once, use it 800 times
- โ Maintainable code - no hacky workarounds, find a solution that makes sense and will last
- โ๏ธ Clear communication - the only way things get done
My latest OL contributions are here, and my recent personal projects are featured below.
