🤩
RockstarVincent Boer is a founder and CTO with 14 years of experience rethinking how organizations build and collaborate on digital products, currently based in Barcelona.

Vincent develops practical patterns like "scenario replays" to keep design documentation living, forkable, and instantly actionable, enabling rapid iteration and internal sharing. He has a track record of shipping compact, adaptable systems across browser extensions, React Native apps, and Node.js backends with very small teams.
