I'm Thomas, the CTO of DFAU GmbH, the creators of toujou. My journey with TYPO3 started back in 2004, while I was still in school. In 2008, I attended my first Developer Days and was immediately captivated by the community. I was so enthusiastic that I even hosted the Developer Days twice in my hometown of Nuremberg, in 2015 and 2016. Before I joined the TYPO3 Core Team, a role I had to step away from in 2018 due to changing personal priorities.
