Hi! I'm Wouter and welcome to my portfolio-site! 😄
I am a backend programmer at heart and I like to develop relatively complex pieces of code that results into something unique, both for fun or for my career. Sometimes I like to program just to have fun. That is why I'm developing CardboardEngine from scratch in my free time. As of writing this (2024), that project has been paused indefinitely. However, I do compete in gamejams nowadays.
I am also interested in old, outdated and especially forgotten techniques. That means that I try to distinguish myself from the rest by combining the best of both: old and new. Computers have always interested me. I've been messing around with them since I was a kid, so it took several computers before I knew how to fix them myself. My first computer was a pentium 1 Windows ME machine. Just imagine... The only Windows you know is Windows ME.. haha :-) 
At around 2008 I found out that there is something like Visual Basic when I was messing around in Microsoft Office. Obviously I found the macro features. Soon I had made a calculator in Microsoft PowerPoint. Then I found out there was a much better version, Visual Basic.NET. I installed Visual Studio 2005 and from then on I knew that this was my calling.
Six years later, in may 2014, I was offered a job as a system programmer at "Triangle Solutions" in the Netherlands. Now that company is known as "Fryqua". While working there, I completed two studies for application development and IT in general. I still work at Fryqua to this day.
