Deyn
I’m a designer and developer based in Berlin, currently building Next.js at Vercel, and previously worked as a software engineer at Microsoft. I enjoy finding and solving problems.
Started programming in high school and has since spent 4 years on algorithm competitions, worked as a freelance developer in Shanghai, and got a BSc degree in Computer Science from Fudan University. I have been contributing to open source since 2013, as well as making games, creative coding, and HCI experiments. Notable work:
- Creator of SWR, a data-fetching library for React, and leading the project since 2019. It now has millions of downloads per month on npm.
- Creator of Next.js Live at Vercel.
- Early designer and creator of the Next.js website in 2018.
- Nextra for building better documentation with Next.js.
- Mak for better writing experience.
And some of my experiments: Y86, Metaballs, COBE, CC, VRS, Flappy Cube, Inns, 赤徑.
