About Me

Hello! I'm Steve Eynon and I'm a computer programmer!

I started programming when I was 8 years old. I was lured in by a rubber keyed ZX Spectrum 48K. There I quickly progressed to Assembler and wrote 3D Vector Demos on the Commodore Amiga. Subsequently I moved through C and Visual Basic before turning to Java and web applications, where I stayed for 10 years or more. More recently I've been involved with Ruby, C# and Javascript.

All that experience has led to me to really appreciate the Fantom language. It tackles all the hard concepts like concurrency, state and serialisation, and does them right! It means I can concentrate on real application problems, and not pseudo-problems introduced by the language. (Why should I care about mutual exclusion and double locking failures? Managers don't!)

Fantom also has small things like field properties, nullable types, and even Elvis(!) that make it a joy to program. It's a pragmatic language that lets me get stuff done.

So now I write programs and libraries in Fantom.

I post on the Fantom Forum under the pseudonym SlimerDude and give updates on the Fantom Google+ page.
