What is Gaya Design all about?

Gaya Design is a weblog about web development written and managed by Gaya Kessler, a guy from a small town in the Netherlands. Since I got the chance (and knowledge) to get my hands dirty with web development I’ve been in love with it. Just two years after starting to learn how to make websites I took a job as a web developer. Not much longer after that I started writing articles which ended up on this website.

A weblog for web developers, by a web developer

This blog is mainly for web developers who want to make the Internet a better place to go about. I’ll explain about certain solutions to problems which we as web developers might bump into and try to share my knowledge with the world. I started this blog for the simple reason to create a place for my findings and write about them for my future self. After a while it got a bit of traffic and it started to get more popular, since then I’ve been writing articles for the web development crowd to read.

Which subjects you can expect to find here?

You’ll find that I talk about HTML, Javascript, PHP, MySQL, CSS, WordPress, jQuery, SASS, Compass and a lot of other subjects that might be interesting.

This blog also hosts a lot of jQuery and WordPress plugins. I wrote these to make your life easier and speed up your development process.

A bit more about Gaya in real life

I am fond of music and almost always have some sort of record playing in the background. You can track my listening behaviours on last.fm to see which bands and music I like. I go to concerts and festivals quite occasionally and you can find me there banging my head to the music and possibly drinking a few beers with my girlfriend and my pals.

What I also really like is looking at art and beautiful geometric stuff. I am also really into tattoo art and am collecting pieces myself.
