I did my first Django project in 2007 when Django had not even reached version 1.0 yet. In 2023 I have rediscovered it and most-likely will use it more together with HTMX when doing web development in Python.

After learning Omikron Basic (Atari ST) and Visual Basic as a kid, Java was the second programming language that I've learned. In the past I've used it for GUIs (based on JWT, Swing, SWT), but also for backoffice applications based on Spring, and more.

Benjamin was great. Not only did he solve my immediate problem, but he had me type in the commands and make changes. This allowed me to better learn and understand the information. With his help, I was able to better understand how ansible roles were put together and I was able to complete the conversion of task based playbooks to roles on a couple of other projects as well. I would highly recommend Benjamin.
