My name is Robert and I am an Apple System Operator and Evangelist at a university in the middle of Germany. My tasks there include the procurement, administration and configuration of Apple hardware as well as supporting students and lecturers in the use of Apple products. After a considerable hiatus, I’ve returned to the world of website creation in 2023, with a particular focus on implementing designs using HTML, CSS, and a touch of JavaScript. Since May 2024, I've also been trying my hand at being a YouTuber with my mate Rine.

I typically write the content on the go from my mobile phone but format it and add links, etc., when I’m seated at a computer. You are welcome to contact me via one of the channels below. However, I prefer to communicate by email.

I really like to keep an eye out for small, lean content management systems. Flat file, of course! That's how I ended up with Yellow, which built this site to my complete satisfaction. Recently I stumbled across a completely different approach that I had never heard of before: bashblog, a single Bash script to create blogs. Since the repo is…
