Technologies

This page is about the various technologies & hardware I used at some point.

The main thing you NEED to remember about this list is that it is not exhaustive. It's there as an indication of what tools and solutions I worked with in my personal, professional or associative projects and activities.

That being said, if you need clarification or the context in which I used a specific software/hardware, shoot me an email at [email protected] I'll make sure to respond and update the page.
