Hello there!
I'm Sebastian, a passionate frontend developer based in Belgium. I spend my days crafting digital experiences, exploring new technologies, and thinking about how design and code can work together to create meaningful solutions.
This site serves as my digital garden—a place where I can share longer, more thoughtful articles alongside shorter notes and observations. I believe in learning in public and hope that sharing my process and discoveries might be useful to others on similar journeys.
What I Do
I craft digital experiences where design meets code, specializing in:
- Frontend engineering - Building responsive, performant web applications with modern JavaScript frameworks, optimizing for Core Web Vitals and accessibility standards
- Component Architecture - Designing and implementing scalable design systems with reusable components, leveraging tools like Storybook and atomic design principles
- User-Centered Development - Translating user research into intuitive interfaces through rapid prototyping, A/B testing, and iterative development cycles
- Performance & Accessibility - WCAG-compliant interfaces optimized for speed, SEO, and cross-platform compatibility using modern build tools and testing frameworks
Current Interests
Right now I'm particularly excited about:
- Modern CSS features and their impact on design workflows
- Sustainable web development practices
- Performance and web accessibility
Beyond Work
When I'm not behind a screen, you'll find me exploring nature, gardening, or renovating my old home. I'm always curious about how things work and love diving deep into topics that spark my interest.
Thanks for taking the time to learn a bit about me. If anything here resonates with you or if you'd like to connect, I'd love to hear from you!
