Hey there, I'm Matthias 👋

I'm a software engineer from Vienna, Austria. As a full stack engineer, I like all aspects of building web applications. Whether it's frontend, backend, or infrastructure, I enjoy all parts of the process. I've worked with various programming languages and frameworks over the years, but the one I always come back to is Laravel. Even though I'd prefer to work in a more type-safe language than PHP, I haven't found any stacks where I'm remotely as productive as I am in Laravel. Take a look at some of my recent work here or on GitHub. 👨‍💻

One of these projects is this website. I revamped it in early 2025 to give it a more modern look, and also to use it as an excuse to get into blogging. My goal is to share things that I learn and think are worth sharing with others, all in a digestible format. If you're interested, you can check out my posts here. ✏️

While I don't regularly post on social media, feel free to reach out to me on Bluesky or Twitter. #️⃣
