Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolDave Lunny is a seasoned JavaScript and UI-focused software engineer with 11 years of experience building and modernizing web applications, currently helping enterprise teams adopt open-source at FOSSA from Vancouver. He brings deep hands-on expertise in React, Redux, GraphQL, TypeScript migrations, and CSS tooling (PostCSS/Sass), and has a knack for practical automation—maintaining a consolidated PostCSS plugin package and improving its plugin-management scripts. As an educator for O'Reilly he translates real-world engineering challenges into clear, actionable lessons, and his work history spans product-driven roles at startups and agencies where he balanced legacy maintenance with modern front-end architecture. Known for a pragmatic, developer-friendly approach (and the occasional emoji in commits), he combines strong UI craft with open-source stewardship and a track record of scaling client-side apps.
