René started with BASIC at the age of 10 and has been employed as a coder since the age of 17. By now he has 10 years of Ruby and roughly 2 years of Elixir experience. According to unconfirmed sources, he describes himself as an "open source aficionado". He is the creator of Credo, a static code analysis tool for the Elixir language.
