I’m a developer and co-owner of Spatie in Antwerp, Belgium. My colleagues and I build products and maintain a whole lot of open-source packages, mostly for PHP and Laravel.
I like building useful things, finding simple solutions, and sharing what I learn.
A few things I work on
- Spatie’s open source — packages that help developers build their apps.
- Oh Dear — website monitoring, built with my friend Mattias.
- There There — a helpdesk app we’re building at Spatie.
- freek.dev — notes from my work, things I’ve learned, and good links from around the web.
Away from the keyboard
I make electronic music as Kobus. Sometimes the two worlds overlap: ableton-ai lets an AI assistant control Ableton Live.
