Hi there, I'm Johannes! I've been building products and open source tools for over a decade including:

  • Prisma, a next-generation TypeScript ORM
  • GraphQL Playground, a GraphQL IDE (donated to GraphQL foundation)
  • Contentlayer, a build tool for your site content
  • Chromeless, a headless Chrome automation tool (before Playwright existed)

I'm currently focussed on

  • Researching and advocating local-first software development
    • Research project: Riffle simplifies app development by using databases for client-side state management
  • Running the localfirst.fm podcast
  • Helping developers write better TypeScript with Effect
  • Maintaining and contributing to OSS libraries
