Hi there 👋
Some may also know me as Barry
I primarily work with RPGLE and Node.js, but previously used other languages like C# and PHP. I am invested heavily into the IBM i industry to help people learn other tech (like Node.js, Heroku, modern development practices, so on!). I love working and creating on dev tools to make developing applications easier for everyone in the long run. I am a consultant working with clients who are usually invested in IBM i. I help them use new technologies on and off the OS. I of course love, love, love open-source! Oh and I sometimes speak at conferences.
🔭 I’m currently working on: node-db2fori🌱 I’m currently learning: Db2 for i ODBC socket protocol💬 Ask me about: anything IBM i or Node.js📫 How to reach me: Twitter!😄 Pronouns: They/them⚡ Fun fact: Breakfast tacos are my fav but I can't find them in the UK
Cool open-source projects 😎
- rpgfreeweb - a browser based RPGLE fixed-to-free format converter
- db2Model - a CLI to generate Node.js-JavaScript based on Db2 for i database objects
- openapi-ileastic - Generates an entire RPGLE web server based on an OpenAPI spec.
- NetRPG - my attempt at writing an RPGLE runtime based on .NET Core.
- ILEditor - the original ILEditor, an .NET Framework based IDE for IBM i development
- noxDB - a JSON & XML parser written in C. I helped write test cases and documentation for this awesome project
