Amthonie
Software Engineer & Home Automation Enthusiast
Naarden, The Netherlands
I’m Amthonie, a software engineer specializing in PHP. When I’m not working on travel technology projects, you’ll find me experimenting with smart home automation or enjoying the nature around Naarden. I’m driven by a focus on local control, privacy, and continuous learning.
nihil invitus facit sapiens
necessitatem effugit, quia vult quod coactura est.
A wise man does nothing against his will; he escapes necessity because he wills what he will be forced to do.
