Manage episode 423086241 series 3567899
In this lively episode of Rebase, we welcome Christoph Nakazawa, a key player in the JavaScript community renowned for his work on Jest, Yarn, Relay, Metro, MooTools... and the list doesn't end there.
Christoph takes us on a fascinating journey from his early days as a teenage coder, shares how Linus Torvalds' philosophy of open source inspired him to dive into the world of JavaScript frameworks, and how that eventually lead him to maintaining Mootools.
He also reflects on his time at Facebook. He shares how he transformed Jest into a powerful widely-used testing tool, how he lead his team as an Engineering Manager, but also how hiring at Facebook works.
Beyond Facebook, Christoph talks about his indie gaming studio, Nakazawa Tech, and his passion for developing video games like Athena Crisis using web technologies.
Tune in for an inspiring and insightful conversation with Christoph as he shares his diverse career experiences, and the impact of open source projects on his life and the tech world as a whole.
