About Simone

Simone Vittori is a programmer originally from Perugia, Italy, but now living in London, England. He's obsessed about code: if he's not writing it, he's probably reading, speaking or dreaming about it. He enjoys coding in many different languages, such as Ruby, Elixir, Elm and Gleam, just to name a few. In his free time, he loves walking in nature, eating pasta and playing video games.

I founded this site in 2010, back when Adobe Flash and Internet Explorer 6 were still a thing. It went through a few iterations since then, going from a humble personal space to a WordPress blog, until I settled with Octopress, a static site generator based on Jekyll.

Fun facts:

• It is free and open source. It’s my way of giving back to the indie web. It feels good to share, and it’s the right thing.

• There is no backend nor database. All pages are actually just HTML & CSS, resulting in a super fast website that can’t be hacked.

• No advertising or tracking either. I write blog posts so that I don’t forget stuff I learn and because I enjoy sharing my work.
