Obyx

Alan

Developer and Tester

When we started putting this site together, I said that I considered myself the (hence the picture) 'Obyx guinea pig.' I was one of the first developers to be taught Obyx without any knowledge of it's internals.

What surprised the rest of the team, was how quickly I (as a Junior developer, starting his first real job) eased into it, and started producing professional, reusable code. Although Obyx is no longer foreign to me, it still surprises almost daily me with it's simplicity. I'm pleased and proud to say a long time later, I still use it day in-day out.

I have been a web application developer for about two years, and a nerd for about 26.

You can catch me on #obyx as alol
