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 some of the tools and solutions I worked with in my personal, professional or associative projects and activities. It's certainly not all of them, check the build date in the footer to get an idea.

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.
