Sebastian Dammark

Sebastian Dammark first met Umbraco while working at DynamicWeb, which is either a confession or a conversion story depending on who is asking. His first install was 4.7.1, and when Razor arrived he was not among those cheering: in 2011 he joined the XSLT Rebel Alliance, a resistance movement whose long-term prospects can now be assessed fairly. He has been building with Umbraco personally and professionally ever since, most recently at Modgift, where he made Umbreasy. When he is not knee deep in code he is somewhere near a stage with an unreasonable number of cameras strapped to him, photographing concerts. He once wrote an entire desktop application so a friend would not have to type one command, and would do it again.

I built an entire desktop app so my friend would stop swearing

Watching his designer friend swear his way through installing Umbraco, Sebastian could have written a shell script. Instead he built Umbreasy, a desktop app that creates and manages local Umbraco installs with no terminal in sight.
