Experience
Digital agency Bitfactory from Rotterdam has aksed me to work on one of their projects, called NRVT. It stands for "Nederlands Register Vastgoed Taxateurs". The organisation was founded to manage all taxers of property within the Netherlands. The CRM they are using to manage their relations, is being build by Bitfactory and was needed to finish their front-end. The front-end I worked on is using TypeScript, Nuxt (Vue.js), Vuex and PostCSS for styling.
