Main interests
What my projects, articles & videos are usually about. But not only!
Functional programming
I started my FP adventure using Scheme and OCaml, but I'm now a happy user of Scala: an elegant, safe and practical language combining functional and object-oriented programming.
Event sourcing
Event sourcing gives us not only performance, but also makes sure important data doesn't disappear, and offers and interesting way of structuring code. It's usable both in the large, and in the small, which isn't so well known!
Developer experience
How to balance safety properties guaranteed at compile-time, with code readability and maintainability? Fundamental tradeoffs are not always obvious, and most popular approaches aren't always "the best".
