Hi, I'm Piet!
I develop fast, reliable, and engaging web applications.
I am currently employed by DEKRA Germany and am not available for new projects.
With 8 years of experience as a JavaScript developer, I've focused on Vue and Nuxt for the past 6 years. I've been working with Vue 3 and the Composition API for 3 years. My backend primarily relies on Node servers, and I've recently started learning Rust.
I utilize AI tools like Github Copilot, Midjourney, and GPT-4.5 to boost my work efficiency, enabling me to focus on challenging tasks while spending less time on simpler ones. The time savings from using AI tools translates to reduced costs for my clients. I also provide free, royalty-free images when needed.
These clients trust my expertise.
I'm available for hourly work or we can agree on a flat rate for weeks or months. I work best with partners located between +2 UTC and -5 UTC. Offering flexibility and convenient collaboration, I am a great nearshore partner.
German is my native language, and I have good English skills.
This results in faster website loading times, reduced error rates, increased reliability, and often better search engine rankings.
I have successfully implemented this approach in Vue and Nuxt projects for various startups, companies, and institutions.
I'm happy to patiently explain technical terms if I notice my conversation partner is unfamiliar with concepts like Single-Page Application (SPA), Server-Side Rendering (SSR), Static-Site Generation (SSG) or Hybrid.
If you're interested in collaborating, I look forward to a 1-2 hour, non-binding conversation about your project. Typically, I can contribute productively from the second day, unless the project is particularly complex.
I don't require a lengthy onboarding process - just a cup of coffee and a friendly team.
Code, Refine, Repeat.
I'm a freelance Vue.js developer based in Cologne, Germany. I have a passion for technology and a commitment to continuous learning in web development.
I work with modern JavaScript ES6+ features and stay up-to-date with the latest web standards.
I have had the opportunity to develop a diverse array of TypeScript applications across industries such as e-commerce, healthcare, press, steel, and automotive.
My main focus as a Frontend Developer is on enhancing web performance and optimizing page speed, which has become increasingly important for SEO.
This site offers excellent performance, even with its many interactive 3D elements, images, multi-language support, light/dark mode, and an additional font - at 0 x 0px / 0fps, and with just ~480kb of total transferred data.
As a Frontend Developer I'm well-versed in UI/UX best practices and can offer helpful insights on conversion funnels, usability, and design.
In backend development, I emphasize RAM and CPU efficiency to help minimize cloud costs or enable simpler deployments. Multithreaded Node.js and Rust web servers, along with modern databases such as MongoDB and Postgres, can handle up to 30k requests per second on dedicated servers.
