Štěpán Skovajsa
Štěpán started with programming at age 12. His journey started with C/C++, lead him to web technologies through languages like PHP and he ended with JavaScript because he realised that both client & backend can be written just with that. In the daytime, he’s a frontend developer at Kiwi.com, in the nighttime, he’s also a backend beast and expresses himself as a full swag developer.
Petr Šnobelt
Petr has been programming for more than 20 years and nearly all-time in a browser. He fell in love with React immediately after the first release and still loves it. He likes evaluating new ideas from functional languages like ReasonML or Elm and put these concepts into regular JavaScript.
