What clients and coworkers say

I've had the pleasure of collaborating with Fons on several projects. During that time, he came across as a true team player: sociable, eager to share his knowledge, and always striving to provide feedback. We developed a strong bond during this period. I still frequently speak with him about frontend technologies and design patterns.
