Hi, I'm Ayu 
I am a front-end developer and a tech blogger based in The Netherlands.
I have a strong interest in building projects that are accessible to everyone.
Learning new things fills me with excitement and I am always eager to share my learning in public and pass on my knowledge through my blog and Twitter.
I also have a deep passion for collaborations, contributing to open sources, and community engagements.
