Blog

I prefer good ol' fashioned personal blogs over “content platforms” and here I'll try to contribute a bit on that regard. Expect blog posts about cloud - especially AWS - focusing on full-stack development, serverless, infrastructure as code and developer tooling… but also about other things. Oh and btw, there's an RSS feed.
