About Me

I'm a full-stack web developer with over a decade of experience building and scaling online businesses. My technical expertise spans modern web development with Laravel, React, Inertia.js, PHP, and Tailwind CSS.

I specialize in creating seamless user experiences and robust backend systems. From technical implementation and analytics to optimization strategies, I'm passionate about solving complex problems with elegant solutions.

"Building the database tool I always wished existed"

My mission is simple: create a database client that combines power with simplicity, making database management accessible and enjoyable for developers of all skill levels.

The Story Behind LunoDB

LunoDB emerged from my frustration with existing database tools that were either overly complex for simple tasks or too limited for advanced work. I built LunoDB to bridge that gap - creating an intuitive, powerful database client that developers actually enjoy using.

As a full-stack developer working on e-commerce platforms and web applications, I spent countless hours switching between different database tools, each with their own quirks and limitations. I knew there had to be a better way.

So I set out to build the database tool I wished existed - one that combines power with simplicity, leveraging modern technologies like Electron and React to create a fast, cross-platform desktop experience.

The Mobile Story

Available on iOSAndroid Coming Soon

The most requested feature since LunoDB launched? A mobile version. Developers kept asking: "Can I check my database while away from my desk?" The answer is now yes.

LunoDB Mobile is now live on the App Store, bringing the same powerful features you love to your phone. Write SQL with AI assistance, browse your tables, edit data on the go, and visualize insights - all from your pocket. Android is on the way.

And the best part? It's completely free. No subscription, no in-app purchases. Just the full power of LunoDB in your pocket.
