Auke van Slooten

Founder of Muze.nl and co-founder of SimplyEdit.io.

I started working on the web in 1994 when I co-founded the Student Network Twente, on the University of Twente, managing a revolutionary high speed (10Mbps) network on the university campus.

Since 1997 I've worked professionally on building enterprise web content management solutions, including Ariadne CMS and Vedor. In 2015 we launched SimplyEdit, a true drag and drop user interface for the read-write web. Today we are working on extending this to a universal low-code application builder.

I've got extensive experience in designing and building large scale maintainable software products, in PHP and JavaScript (ES6 / NodeJS). I am true full stack developer, but also know my way around designing and building front-end user interfaces and UX.
