Autopergamene

My name is Emma Fabre, I'm 30 years old and I live in France. I've always been someone with a passion for creating things: I started writing very early, then drawing, and so on. I went to an "applied arts" school which taught me how to communicate visually and forced me to expand my horizons and try a variety of medium.

Along the way I learned the ways of the web by myself on OpenClassrooms (called Le Site du Zéro back then), but never did I imagine it would become my career and passion, it was just a mean to an end to showcase some of the things I had made. But when I started working in advertising and had the chance to put those skills into practice more and more, only then did I realize this is what I wanted to do. I was fascinated by the web, the open source community, and all the absolutely crazy things we could already do with the technologies of that time.

Eventually through sheer luck I landed at madewithlove, where I found people whose vision of the web, of being a developper, aligned so perfectly with my own that I've been with these amazing people ever since and I've kept growing there more than ever before.

About this website

This website was made with Gatsby and Typescript, it is entirely static and rebuilt when new content is pushed, which is why it's so fast. All data (photos, tracks, etc.) are centralized in a GraphQL API that all pages then query.

Here is what this website used to look like just for posterity.
