Javascript is one of the most popular programming languages in the world.
Photoshop is the most used graphic design tool in the world.
If you add Javascript to Photoshop, together they are greater than the sum of their parts.

Hi, I'm Chris,
Programming is a passion of mine and I've worked as an software engineer for nearly 20 years.
I've worked at startups and big corporates. I'm here to share with you things that I've learned along the way.
I work with different technologies, and use the right one for the right job. Today I mainly program in Swift, and often use Javascript and Python.
I'm well versed in different creative applications such as Photoshop/Sketch and use Xcode daily.
