Software engineer, 15+ years.
The tools change but the problems don't.
I've been building software for over 15 years. I started in the full-stack grind (PHP, Rails, jQuery, that whole era) and over time moved toward the why behind things instead of the how. That shift made me a better engineer than any framework ever did. These days I think about architecture, boundaries, and the fundamentals that don't expire.

ignatiusCLI. - hapi / hapipal: Member of the hapi Technical Steering Committee (TSC). A server framework that doesn't change every six months.
