Hello, I'm Maurice.
I am a software consultant and trainer, specializing in TypeScript, ECMAScript, React, Svelte and ASP.NET MVC. My work includes a large, global, safety application for the oil and gas industry. This is completely done with React. I have also worked on many other applications.
I am also active in the open source community. You can check out my GitHub account.
When not building applications myself I teach other developers. The topics vary from ECMAScript, TypeScript, React, Svelte, Vue, Cypress, RxJS to ASP.NET MVC.
I have received Microsoft’s Yearly Most Valuable Professional Award since 2005. I am also active in the dotNed user group and helps organize its meetings.
