I have been a programmer since 2001. I started out with C++ in High School and picked up several new languages in college. I am fluent in C/C++, Assembly, Java, Basic, C#, HTML, PHP, Perl, and especially Python. I came to love Python for it's ease of use as a programming language. It allowed me to rapidly develop programs in a day or two that would have taken a week or so in any other language. Then, I went to work and hit the complex projects. Python really seemed to click for most of those projects as well. The code was smaller and easier to follow than any other language. Coding styles were consistently forced. We could embed performance sensitive C routines in the code. Python have everything going for it except for the GUI toolkits. I have programmed GUI's in WxPython for 3 years now, and I must say it reminds me so much of C++. The code was pretty ugly. Then I found Dabo... It is what a Python GUI toolkit should be. Since it is a wrapper around WxPython, I felt right at home.

So far, I have used Dabo for a number of commercial projects. I use only the UI layer, as my projects do not require database support. In addition to using Dabo, I have started contributing code to the framework, implementing a few UI widgets and utility classes. I also plan on releasing some rewritten versions of utility programs that I use like a Serial Debugging Terminal under the Dabo Demos.

I am available as a developer for commercial Dabo projects. If you are interested, please contact me: solodex2151 at gmail dot com
