Let’s get it started! My first Blogpost about programming, bots, cloud computing, concepts and so on…
Hello and welcome to my new blog about programming (NodeJS), bots, cloud computing, backends, software concepts, devOps, … So in general I want to share my tech experience from the last couple of years. You know there are a lot of problems in the world you can solve with software. I will show you solving concepts based on real projects/problems, sometimes with step-by-step tutorials.
First of all let me introduce myself. My name is Philipp Holly, I grew up in Austria and live currently in Los Angeles (since 2016). I am programmer since I was 14. Building software systems is my passion, my hobby. 😍
I founded my first company called P#OLLY (www.pholly.at) when I was 17 years old. It was about programming freelancing and consulting.
During my study at the University of Applied Science I started a new company called “intracked” (age: 21). It was an B2C app with a connected B2B platform for driving schools and their students (more infos: www.intracked.com). I sold the company after 1 year of existence.
After that I founded a new company called “dvel” with 2 co-founders, so I became CTO of the Austria (Vienna) and US (Delaware) based company. This happened in the beginning of 2015.
Dvel is an app to do/make social decisions within seconds with your friends (more infos: www.letsdvel.com). In February 2016 we rebranded and redesigned “dvel” into “swell” (🐳 www.swell.wtf) especially for the US market.
So I will mainly talk about my experience as a CTO at “swell” on this blog.
Enough said about me, let’s start with some fun stuff 😉
PS: If you have any questions about my work/blog/life, don’t hesitate to ask!
#swell yeah
Your’s Phil
