I used JavaScript since the early days of the web and I've dabbled in CoffeeScript and used TypeScript commercially. I've used many of the libraries like jQuery at one time or another. I frequently have to build complex web-based UIs and I've moved to using AngularJS where the project isn't constrained by enterprise installaions of IE.

I've used C# commercially as a contract software developer since it's first release. It's my bread and butter.

I've used different varieties of SQL for my whole career and I've used the most complex and the most arcane commands at sometime. Nowadays, of course, this is almost always abstracted behind an ORM or exists in a non-relational form such as a table or document or key-value store.

I use git for all my projects. I've used git-tfs extensively in Microsoft houses where only TFS is available. I've use GitHub and Bitbucket and I've run whole projects via GitHub. I use git from the command line so I've a really good understanding of what is available.

I've used every version of ASP.NET MVC and I'm currently working with ASP.NET MVC 5 and WebApi 2.

I've used Twitter Bootstrap on three production systems I've designed and built. I moved the first of these from v.2 to v.3 so that gave me extra insight.

I contributed to an early version of TwitterBootstrapMVC [https://github.com/Boggin/TwitterBootstrapMvc/tree/mvc3].

I've set up Agile in a number of companies, I'm a certified Scrum Master, and I've worked as a Scrum Master and an Agile Coach. I firmly believe that almost any project can be Agile and implementing the central tenets of XP and Agile is extremely beneficial in most every case.
