This is the personal website of me, Tim Bernhard. I use this website mainly to publish in the blog whatever I was missing when searching the web, whatever advice and ideas I wished for or got when solving a problem. Sometimes, the content is just some ideas, a short code snippet, and sometimes a slightly longer tutorial. I kindly as you to not use the content as an exemple of my technical writing skills – if it has to be used to assess me, please see it rather as an example of things I am interested in. But even then, I would kindly suggest you rather ask for my CV, checkout my GitHub account or the projects I do for clients.
