Info
- SummaryI'm currently working on web application design, trying to make the most of Javascript, HTML5 and CSS3 on the client side, and using PHP/Codeigniter on the server side. Previous projects used ASP and Python. The next one will probably use Node.
I like trying new apps, tools, and technologies, understanding how they work and exploring how they can be used on clients' projects.
I'm also involved in the Dublin CoderDojo as a mentor in Javascript coding classes.
