Lewis Hoffman and I created Wagn, now Decko, together as a side project back in 2006. Now, more than fifteen years later, I'm serving as chief architect for Decko and still actively developing it alongside Philipp Kühl, Gerry Gleason, and a broad community contributing ideas, inspiration, fixes, resources, and the occasional well-deserved kick in the pants.
