Daniel reviews software the hard way: by trusting it with a live deadline.
A former front-end developer, he joined the Gazette to cover the tools beat without the hype — piloting apps on real projects, counting the hours, and reporting which ones earn their subscription. His rule is simple: no tool is recommended until it has survived contact with a client.
He maintains the Gazette's legendary subscription audit and has strong opinions about keyboard shortcuts.
