Summary

I'm a belgian Full-Stack Javascript developer who started developing with BASIC, Borland Turbo Pascal and later some assembly on an original IBM PC some 22 years ago.

I did my first XMLHttpRequest back in 1999 on IE5 and I was hooked on the freedom of theJjavascript language. In the following years I developed a Single-Page Application framework based on a XML syntax for defining fully functional copies of Windows (XP at first with all 3 color themes, and later adopted the Aero look).

I simply love Javascript and have been using it on front-end and backend (Aptana Jaxer and later Node.js) for well over 15 years now and have no doubt that I will keep on using it now that ECMAScript 6 is finally here and javascript is finally getting the attention it deserves
