Siegfried Derdeyn is a seasoned full-stack .NET developer and lecturer at Howest University with over a decade of hands-on experience building web, desktop, mobile and console applications. He combines long-standing industry experience—from C++ and AmigaBasic days to modern ASP.NET Core, Blazor, MAUI and popular JS frameworks—with a passion for teaching developers to become professionals. As owner of SpruceBit he delivers bespoke apps while keeping skills sharp through tinkering with servers, containers, Raspberry Pi/Arduino and cross-platform stacks. His background in both classroom and production roles gives him a pragmatic approach to architecture, databases (MS‑SQL, mySQL, MongoDB) and developer tooling. Notably, he blends academic distinction and vocational teaching credentials with the curiosity and humor evident in his recursive GitHub bio.
