    About me

    I'm Alex, a 17-year-old apprentice software developer from Zürich, Switzerland. Currently I split my time between building real projects at my apprenticeship and studying at BZZ Horgen — frontend or backend, doesn't matter, if it ships I'm in.

    I care about clean code, fast feedback loops, and shipping things that actually get used.
