Hi, Salut

Pragmatic web application developer, I enjoy my freelance way of life in my home office every day. I mainly use Ruby based frameworks (Rails / Sinatra / Rack) as my main development arsenal and jQuery is my day to day friend for every piece of client side. Aside from development freedom, I really enjoy the business side of behind freelance, and will soon to release my own personal application. In my free time, I enjoy cooking, runnning and sharing a coffee or a beer with people, so if you're around Bristol, let's be in touch.


Betaprogramming

Good code practice should be a second nature for every coder.

But sometimes, you just want things works, and when it’s working you want another thing works and …. you code during 15 days, on your new project, with only the only ambition of seen it alive as soon as possible.

Then 1 night you decide to clean this code up. Just 1 or 2 hours job, easy and brain free …

This (these) night(s) was yesterday night and the night before …

It drives me crazy, I screamed, I was upset, I was oblige to broke a big part of the application and do another time what I’ve done 2 weeks ago.

But now it’s working, and my code is really more maintainable. Let’s work on the design now ;)
