Full-stack developer passionate about clean code, accessibility, and the IndieWeb. When I'm not coding, I'm spending time with my family or behind a camera lens.

~/about $ cat ~/about/bio.txt

Hi, I'm Dennis Lemm, a full-stack developer based in Germany. I specialize in building modern web applications with a focus on performance, accessibility, and user experience.

My professional journey has taken me through various roles in web development, from frontend interfaces to backend architectures. I believe in writing clean, maintainable code and creating digital experiences that work for everyone.

Current Focus

  • Building scalable web applications with TypeScript and modern frameworks
  • Exploring the IndieWeb movement and personal data ownership
  • Contributing to open source projects
  • Advocating for web accessibility and inclusive design

Beyond code, I'm passionate about photography, especially capturing moments with my family. Being a father has taught me patience, planning, and the importance of work-life balance.

I'm a firm believer in the terminal and vim-style workflows, which is reflected in this website's design. There's something satisfying about efficient, keyboard-driven interfaces.

My Tech Philosophy

"Technology should empower people, not overwhelm them. Good software is invisible to the user but delightful in its simplicity."

I believe in:

  • Accessibility First: The web should work for everyone
  • Performance Matters: Every millisecond counts
  • Privacy by Design: User data should be protected by default
  • Progressive Enhancement: Start with a solid foundation
  • Semantic HTML: Markup should have meaning
  • Open Standards: Build on open, interoperable technologies

~/about $ cat ~/about/.indieweb

This website is part of the IndieWeb movement. I believe in owning my content, controlling my online presence, and connecting with others through open standards rather than corporate silos.

You'll find rel="me" links throughout this site, microformats in the markup, and an RSS feed for syndication. This is my corner of the web, and I invite you to create yours too.
