Hobbies and Interests

I try to keep myself up to date with all the current front-end libraries and frameworks and continually play with code outside of work, subscribing to pretty much all of the CooperPress mailing lists, and Egghead.IO

My current favourite library/framework of choice is React, as after using Knockout and Angular the idea of a DOM system that was all just javascript was interesting, and after playing with JSX for a bit, it got me hooked, and I am dissapointed that I didn't use it for the two sites I used Vue for. At the time I was playing with Vue, and a new tool (Poi) which made it simple to run with Vue.

I'm a bit of a console gamer as I have a Switch, a PS4 and an XBOX and often get hooked on RPGs. I'm looking forward to Kigndom Hearts 3 and CyberPunk 2077.

I'm also a bit of a reader and can say I have read all of R. E. Feists' Magician books, and I am currently reading his latest book now.

I am also a Referee for Football Far North Coast, and will likely continue refereeing football (soccer) wherever I move, as I recently got back into this as a method of keeping fit.
