ready-4 IT

About Me

This website & tooling

The site’s theme was designed and built in‑house; several images and illustrations are original work as well. The CMS is extended with focused custom plugins. A flexible Vagrantfile provides reproducible development environments. To keep tests and builds fast, “Vagrant Cache Pro” was developed.
