Brothercake
coming in to land
Brothercake is a professional web-developer based in the UK,
specialising in client-side programming,
with a strong focus on accessibility and standards-based development.
This website is a portfolio for my work,
and a collection of useful resources including scripts,
games and articles.
There's also some hobbies and personal stuff,
and occasionally I rant or sound-off about something or other.
