About this blog

Hi 👋 My name is Viktor.

I’m a passionate tech-guy, now working for more than a decade on web projects. I love learn new stuff and experiment with the latest cutting edge technologies. Choosing the right solution for a problem is the key for a successful outcome of my work. Therefore I’m always keeping in mind to fulfill the scope of a project according to given budget and time.

For quite a long time I had the intention to create a tech blog and write something about my work. Now I finally made it 😊 I hope with my posts and tutorials to help one or another with their problem.
