I’m a Ruby developer, born in Zagreb, Croatia and currently living in Brno, Czechia .

I write, speak and contribute to open source. I’m not a Rails fan, and I put a lot of effort into promoting better alternatives, such as Sequel, Roda, Rodauth, and Shrine.

I’ve authored many Ruby gems:

• Shrine – file attachment toolkit for Ruby applications
• ImageProcessing – high-level wrapper for ImageMagick and libvips
• Down – streaming downloads using net/http, http.rb or wget
• rodauth-rails – Rails integration for Rodauth authentication framework
• sequel-activerecord_connection – allows Sequel to reuse Active Record’s database connection

I’m also a Vim user and have written a popular plugin for running tests called test.vim.

In my free time I enjoy practising acroyoga, dancing zouk, and playing the piano.
