Hi, there.

My name is Garrett.

I'm a speaker, developer, and designer.

about me ↴

about me

Hi! My name is Garrett. Welcome to my little corner of the internet. I'm a self-taught developer and tech-nerd. I create software that I hope makes people's lives better. I created the Flitter web framework, and a couple other fun projects. I love to communicate my work, and help others pursue their projects, which is why I've got a long history of sharing about my passion. I write blog posts, create video tutorials, hold talks, and publish code from my projects in the hope that others will find it useful.

A bit more background: I grew up in the rural mid-west, so I taught myself everything I know. I'm a big fan of learning to code this way. I'm currently studying computer science at the University of Kansas.

Flitter-DI is the second-generation dependency-injector used by the Flitter framework. It was pulled from the libflitter project in the hope that it can remain independent from the rest of Flitter and can be used in other projects. More info here.

Dependency Injection in Less Than 100 Lines of Pure JavaScript

DI is a powerful pattern for segmenting code to keep it efficient and easy to reuse. In this article, we're going to build a basic DI in <100 lines of pure ES6. Read about it here.
