I'm David — a software engineer based in the UK. I graduated with a First Class Honours degree in Software Engineering and spend most of my time building web applications I'd be happy to maintain in two years.

I care about boring, durable choices: typed code, small modules, real tests, and writing things down. I don't chase frameworks — I pick what fits and ship.
