Meet Dave

Hello — I’m Meet Dave, a fullstack engineer with a decade of programming experience, currently living in Bergen, Norway and working as a Frontend Tech Lead on the Flow product @ Ditio AS.

I’m passionate about building performant and reliable product experiences. Day-to-day I build with TypeScript, React Router v7 (Remix) and prefer Astro when it comes to static sites. I write styles with Tailwind CSS using Shadcn UI components, and add subtle animations through Framer Motion. I usually use Tanstack libraries to nail the frontend user experience. For the backend, data flows through Prisma or Drizzle ORM on Node.js/Bun runtimes served by Express/Hono, and with extensive experience with Docker and CI/CD pipelines. I try keeping performance measurable, infrastructure minimal and the interface true to the design down to the last pixel.

Currently, I’m exploring the intersection of Generative AI and software development. I’m particularly interested in how Large Language Models enhance developer workflows and productivity.
