About | Mydnic.be

Hi, I'm Clément.

Both with passion and time, I learned the tricks of Web Development as a self made man, going from project to project, sometimes as a developer, sometimes as a Project Manager. Through wonderful and unexpected experiences, I learned and grew up along with internet bubble challenges. By mixing my skills in web development, social communication, production management and business development, my focus can go from the smallest details to the whole company's technological flow. For each of my assignments, I set to myself the ultimate objective to deliver a smooth combination of sensitive and innovative work.

I grew up in Wallonia, quit school after my BAC+3 to build websites for agencies, and never really stopped. The first thing I ever shipped was a site for a friend's bar in 2011. It still works. I no longer recommend Drupal.

From 2014 onwards I focused on Laravel, the framework had just hit v4, the community was small and welcoming, and the docs felt like a human wrote them. I rebuilt this website that same year as a place to keep my notes. I never expected anyone else to read them. twelve years and hundreds of posts later, here we are.

I co-founded and ran a small digital agency in Brussels for a few years, which taught me how hard running a startup really is. I now work as a Consultant CTO for startups and small online businesses. One engagement at a time, no agencies, no retainers I can't deliver on. My roles have included Web Developer (Laravel, VueJS), Digital Business Analyst, Scrum Master, Technical Leader, and Coach & Trainer. My main focus is to guide Startups with their digital needs.

By working with a large network of entrepreneurs and money raising startups, I analyze, report, build and optimize your ideas and products to help you reach high quality standards.

This site is my public notebook. I use it to talk about things I love and write down things I don't want to forget. Solutions from my past self that my future self keeps needing. It's been running since 2010 and I have no plans to stop.

When I'm not at a keyboard I'm probably making bread, fixing my house, or rewatching The Lord of the Rings for the fortieth time. I speak French, English, and bad Dutch.

If you're an early-stage founder who needs someone to guide the technical side of your product, get in touch.
