About me
Louw Swart
Front-end Engineer, Wellington NZ
I have been in Software Development since 2008, with most of that time spent in Agile environments, designing, coding, testing and supporting applications across a variety of technologies and platforms.
While my background is Java, I have been focusing my attention on JavaScript development since June 2014, working with frameworks such as Angular, React and GraphQL. My passion is developing for the Node.js runtime.
I am a pragmatic individual with a strong sense of responsibility - I like to get things done. Front-end or back-end, I’m equally comfortable performing either or both.
