About

With over 20 years of experience in software development, I began my career in the late 1990s by creating websites for local businesses. In the early 2000s, I achieved notable success with shareware games, which were featured on more than 150 shareware platforms. My expertise later extended to developing platforms for a diverse range of clients, including cabinet makers and telecom companies. Recently, I decided to start developing browser extensions to focus on innovative solutions and to move away from the traditional contract-based development model.

🚀 Prepping for a Monday Launch – Chrome Extension for Solopreneurs Submitting to Directories

Hey makers

I built a Chrome extension specifically for solopreneurs and indie hackers who want to easily submit their startup to directories like SaaSHub and others without losing track or wasting time.
