Stefan Zweifel

Fullstack Developer

I'm currently working at 2media as a full stack developer where I help develop and maintain our customer-facing and internal applications written in Laravel, Vue.js, Tailwind CSS and Laravel Livewire.

I regularly try to contribute to the open source community by writing guides on how to automate tasks or by releasing PHP packages to solve a particular problem.

On this personal website I write about how I solve problems in my personal or professional projects, how I setup my favourite apps or on how to apply minimalism to the digital world.
