2026 work update. Still looking for full time or part time work. Remote or onsite in Spain.
I fall neatly into the creative developer / design engineer category. I'm good at #html, #css and #js
I mainly work with #AstroJS, #CraftCMS, #Kirby and #Shopify. I don't use UI frameworks and take pride in a craft I’ve spent over 20 years learning.
Open to collaborating with companies and individuals to bring projects to life. It would be nice if you do work that gives good belly feels.

Self-Hosting My Astro Site with Headless WordPress on Hetzner

New blog post: “Conditional JSX in Astro”.
https://blog.kizu.dev/conditional-jsx-in-astro/
This is me documenting the way I am handling some of the more complex conditional rendering in Astro’s JSX. Well, not strictly _JSX_ — but its “Component Template” part of `.astro` components and assigning them to variables.
AI slop is filling the internet. I want more humans writing on their own websites.
So I made Astro Editor — a free macOS app for writing markdown & MDX in Astro content collections. 🎉
Code editors are terrible for prose. iA Writer is great for prose but can't handle frontmatter, MDX, or component insertion.
Astro Editor is basically iA Writer for @astro content collections.
Astro live-hack of the week: props spreading to pass them on to an element in the template section. Like fall through attributes in Vue. #astrojs #webdev
Really enjoy working with mise (https://mise.jdx.dev) as task runner in a mono-repo context. Set up a small template repository combing #mise, #pocketbase, #astrojs and npm workspaces: https://github.com/ArcoMul/mise-astro-pocketbase #webdev
Wrote a blog post on how I built my website's photo gallery using Astro.js. My goal was simple: export a JPG from Capture One and have the new photo automatically appear on my site.

Astro Docs is redefining Must-See TV... well, for docs 😅
Tomorrow on Talking and Doc'ing:
- Fixing an Astro Docs SEO issue using Starlight's new `routeData`.
- Writing docs for a feature that doesn't exist (and that we don't yet even know how we're going to implement) to drive its development!
Subscribe to the @astro YouTube channel and be notified when we go live (Thurs 9ET / 14:00 CET)
I added comments from Mastodon as comments in my #astrojs blog and wrote how I did it in case anyone wants to use it.
Goodbye Wordpress, hello #AstroJS and #Tailwind
Finally replaced and relaunched my company website https://zopyx.com after 7 years on Wordpress.
AI has been the key driver of this relaunch. This time based on Cursor IDE with a little help of Claude Code.
Based on AstroJS and Tailwind CSS, the site is available in German, French and English.
There are still some todo regarding images, visuals and some texts but the overall outcome is better than expected with 3 business days of work.
Nach vielen Jahren WordPress war für mich klar: Ich brauche wieder echte Kontrolle über meinen Code.
Mein Umstieg auf AstroJS – mit allen Erfahrungen, Vorteilen & Gründen
