About yourself

Oi! I'm vini, nice to meet you! 👋

I'm a human with a background in design and web frontend.

I like web standards, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, progressive enhancement, usability, acessibility.

I also like photography, swimming, bikes, trains, and birds.

I learnt most of my professional skills using, tweaking, and contributing to free/libre software back in the day.

(I used to work on websites and designs for the GNOME project -- if you are old enough to remember the GNOME website's grassy footers, that was me!)

Since then, I have worked in and around design systems (think web toolkits, layout patterns, responsive design, UI components), including for some large commercial software development ones.

I got burnt out by big tech's recklessness, and am interested in streaming my energy into sustainable, democratic, and ethical projects.

I'd love to be useful and contribute to Codeberg and Forgejo in any capacity I can. I'm still starting to look at links and docs related to contribution and ux/design areas, and haven't managed to build Forgejo locally yet.

If you have any recommended material I should be looking at, please send my way!


( Relevant materials I have gathered so far )

Btw: I just joined the Forgejo UI channel on Matrix, feel free to say hi! (I'm @vsdl:matrix.org over there)

Interests

  • Software development
  • Community support
  • Public Relations
  • Infrastructure
  • Organization (team meetings, events etc)
  • Other (see text above)

Quick checks

  • I… work on a project on my own
  • … join an existing team
  • … start something new
  • … learn something for yourself
  • … dedicate a steady amount of time
  • … work on a project for a limited period

Hi I'm from the pages-server-v3 team. We are experimenting with progressive enhancement with the Rust framework leptos. At the moment there isn't much to see, but if you want to take a look in the future your feedback is welcome :)
