Herman Pretorius

Developer — HTML, CSS, JS, React, Python, Django. Built my first website in 1995.

Artist, music addict, runner, collector, gardener & behind schedule reader.

During the week you'll finde me at Quantec, busy doing some heavy lifting with David de Wet on the EasyData service. I am also the co-founder of Vinder Media Engineering where we focus on developing and supporting our OffCanvas service.

On the left is a mashup of one of my artworks, "Ysterklip".

I used to write regularly here. I also posted some photos on Flickr before I started posting photos on Instagram.

I occasionally post on Twitter.
