My contract is ending at the end of February and so I’d like to find a new role ASAP.

I am a senior-level design systems developer / design technologist / front-of-the-frontend developer that specializes in web accessibility.

I work remotely from my home in Winnipeg, Canada. 🇨🇦

Shares appreciated!

DEV Community A space to discuss and keep up software development and manage your software career

In my latest blog post on dev.to I talk about the exclusion of Hot Restart in Visual Studio 2026 and what this means for .NET MAUI developers. If you're a .NET MAUI developer or considering mobile development with .NET, this is worth a read:

A glowing Hacking with Swift logo on a CPU.

Tomorrow I release the first chapter from my new book, the Swift AI Playbook. It has one goal: to make it easier for everyone to integrate AI into their apps. Whether you’re using Foundation Models, MLX, OpenAI, or just Image Playgrounds, this is a book you will NOT want to miss.

GitHub - velox-apps/velox: Velox is a port of Tauri to Swift. Velox is a port of Tauri to Swift. Contribute to velox-apps/velox development by creating an account on GitHub.

I love what Tauri has done, a lightweight version of Electron, where you author the backend code in Rust.

But while I love Rust, I do not love it for app building, and I wanted to have that HTML-model for programming but available in Swift.

More important who did you pick because depending on that the ending is pretty intense. The story is so amazing and almost like an episode of Black Mirror.

@johndrake.bsky.social hey, can me and Dan make a game based on The Rock? Thinking a single-player experience that re-creates the movie and a live service mode that acts as a sequel with Stanley Goodspeed forming a coalition of players who go out and find government secrets in churches and stuff.
