Hi, I’m Janey.
I’m a backend developer in Cape Town. These days I mostly write TypeScript on AWS (Lambda, Step Functions, SQS and friends), after fifteen-odd years of building PHP and Drupal sites for media companies, agencies and the brands they work with.
This is where I write about side projects and the things I figure out along the way. If you’re stuck on a serverless workflow, a Drupal upgrade, a tricky migration or a site that needs to go faster, say hello.
