Firesphere's musings

Simon Erkelens

Personal

I'm a professional web developer with extensive knowledge of Silverstripe, secure web development, Laravel and Symfony, as well as security engineer. I also work with Python, and MicroPython, on a pile of Raspberry Pis and Arduinos. Most of my development work is publicly available on GitHub and Codeberg.
