Skills · 2006 to now
Everything I've built the web with.
I started in Macromedia Dreamweaver in 2006, on table layouts and Flash, and I've built in whatever the web was written in at the time ever since. The skills on my CV are the short version. This is the whole list, sorted by the part of a business each tool runs.
Front end · 2006 to now
From Dreamweaver to the App Router.
Table layouts, then floats, then Flexbox and Grid. jQuery plugins, then AngularJS, then React. I've written front ends in every one of those eras, and the build tools that came with each.
