Thank you, Jan

Five years. One legendary lead dev.

Where it all began

The team on the Sopot pier, 2021 — sopot_pier.jpg — 09.09.2021

Seafood lunch by the Baltic — first_lunch_together.jpg — note the octopus 🐙

We flew out just to interview you in person — over a long seafood lunch in Sopot.
You thought that was complete nonsense.
We still think it was the best flight we ever booked.

Fair enough — true love can't be ported to C#. ♦
