I’m Gonçalo Rica Pais da Silva (or Gonçalo Rica Payne in the UK), a front-end developer now located in Barcelona. I specialise in Typescript and Javascript, along with HTML and CSS, though I’m also experimenting and learning Rust at the moment. I focus mostly on front-end development, and dabble occasionally in other areas like Node.js and whatever I can do with Rust. On the occasion I am inspired towards my own projects, I put my stuff onto Github. Otherwise, I am a recluse in terms of my social media presence.

Code Payne launches!
Welcome to Code Payne, my personal portfolio and blog for front-end and web related musings. Built with Hugo and made pretty thanks to Zurb’s Foundation framework and some CSS/JS niceness.
