Hello World πŸ‘‹

Welcome to my website.

I am a software engineer from Bavaria, Germany. I am interested in cool technology, especially Open Source. I work with Linux, .NET, Kubernetes, containers, and many other cool technologies. Besides that, I am also interested in photography.

This webpage acts as a “home base” for all the stuff I do on the internet. I will post here about all the different things I am interested in. Keep in mind that I post different content in different languages. So if you can, check out the other languages.
