Hi!

I'm David

Vandenbogaerde

or

d17e

for short.

And have been doing so for over 20 years, making it hard to summarize. So instead here's a non-exhaustive list of things I've worked with over the years. In order of appearance.

#C++ #MFC #Win32 #OOP #VisualStudio #SQL #DirectX #OpenGL #XNA #Processing #C# #Perl #Java #GWT #HTML #CSS #Eclipse #MSSQL #Oracle #Haskell #FP #JavaScript #OWASP #WebStorm #React #Maven #Jenkins #Angular #Spring #docker #CLI #TypeScript #Vercel #Cloudflare #Svelte #Astro #SVG

For more details, you can check out LinkedIn. Or if you think your project could use some of my magic, let's have a chat!

I've always had an eye on the creative side of technology, though never created anything substantial. That is why, in Q4 of 2022, I started freelancing. In doing so, I created a little bit of space dedicated to artistic exploration.

You can find the outputs of that journey under the media section. Where I can, I also I add some of the story behind the content. Often in series of threes, as I might have some OCD going on, but nothing unmanageable. I promise.

In case you missed it, check out my landing page. It was inspired by the recent Genuary '25 prompt: 'Grid-based graphic design' and is now, in a way, a long-form generative piece created just for you everytime you visit.
I hope you like it.

I try to learn something new everyday, so naturally I've collected an eclectic collection of stories and ideas over the years. When I share these, you can find them on my blog.

I intend to expand on this part and create my own version of a digital garden. But that's for later. Stay tuned?!
