donatj/README.md

Hello!

I am a PHP, Go and TypeScript developer based in Minneapolis.

I work across the entire stack, but I’m happiest in the backend. Moving data, pushing bytes around, making things fast.

I ❤️ tiny reusable parts with single responsibilities and no side effects. I keep code simple, clear, and easy for anyone to read.

I’ve spent fifteen years in EdTech keeping old systems running and new ones from catching fire. Before that I built industrial and B2B tools where things had to work because people depended on them.

What I've been up to recently

I’ve been tinkering with picopass, and I also raised a GitHub rendering issue affecting the project page. (github.com)

I’ve also been thinking about practical trade-offs in software: broader macOS support, the strengths of existing Linux package managers, and how dark mode can become a surprisingly involved design project when imagery is involved.
