Hey, I'm Max! 👋
I'm the co-founder of GraphCDN, the GraphQL CDN, and am widely known for my open source work: about 1% of all public, crawlable websites use tooling I invented, styled-components.1
I also make Bedrock, the premium full-stack SaaS boilerplate, and angel invest in early-stage startups that I'm passionate about. Previously, I worked on JavaScript tooling at Gatsby and architected a greenfield React app at GitHub after they acquired my startup Spectrum, the community platform of the future.
If I'm not coding or tweeting, I'm likely brewing coffee on my espresso machine (I'm a huge specialty coffee geek), climbing in a bouldering gym or skiing around the alps.
