I love web development
Hello, I'm Casper Fabricius. I have developed for the web for 10 years, and have been enjoying Ruby on Rails for the past 5.
My experience covers communities, shopping solutions, multi-language sites, heavy back-end lifting and a wide selection of more traditional websites. I like to integrate Ruby with Java and .NET through JRuby and IronRuby when it makes sense. I am passionate about test- and behavior-driven development, but at the same time I am pragmatic and believe in getting things done.
I live in Copenhagen, Denmark, where I work for a fantastic company: Podio. I do not currently take on freelance assignments.
