Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolHenno Täht is a seasoned web developer and teacher with 25 years of hands-on experience in PHP and 8 years with server-side JavaScript, specialising in debugging legacy systems and designing pragmatic, secure APIs. He is the creator of Halo, a minimal PHP micro-framework born as a teaching tool that now powers production apps from booking systems to e-commerce, prized for its small, transparent codebase and one-click scaffolding. Henno owns the full development lifecycle—shaping user stories, architecting PSR-compliant PHP 8 solutions, and maintaining decades-old systems with a refactor-first mindset. He combines vocational teaching since 2012 with real-world consultancy, mentoring developers on maintainability, API design, and practical tooling like Git rebasing and profiling. Comfortable with modern front-end stacks (Vue, Svelte) and remote pair programming since 2009, he brings a pragmatic balance of pedagogy and production experience. An interesting detail: Halo’s features often started as back-ports from client projects, so the framework reflects repeated real-world constraints rather than academic design.
