In my 20+ years long carrier, I programmed with many languages, including Bash, C, C++, C#, Pascal, Perl, PHP, Objective-C, Python, Java, JavaScript, and Swift. Nowadays, I focus mainly on C++, Python with Django, and JavaScript with Vue and Nuxt. Once a software developer for prestigious companies like **Apple**, Devialet, and Quantic Dream, I now work as a self-employed developer. I'm the creator of two popular open-source projects: [ArduinoJson](https://arduinojson.org/) (since 2014) and [Winpooch](https://sourceforge.net/projects/winpooch/) (2005-2007). I sometimes publish articles on [my blog](https://blog.benoitblanchon.fr/), on [arduinojson.org](https://arduinojson.org/news/), on [cpp4arduino.com](https://cpp4arduino.com/), on [my youtube channel](https://www.youtube.com/c/BenoitBlanchon), and on [cpp4arduino's youtube channel](https://www.youtube.com/c/cpp4arduino). I also wrote a book: [Mastering ArduinoJson](https://arduinojson.org/book/). I'm usually available Monday to Friday between [9AM and 7PM CET](https://www.worldtimebuddy.com/?qm=1&lid=12,5,8&h=12&sln=9-19&hf=2). Don't hesitate to schedule a session directly on Codementor. **NOTE**: I don't do freelance jobs, especially assignments.
