Coen ten Thije Boonkkamp

Building the future of Swift web development, one type-safe function at a time.

I'm pioneering server-side Swift through production systems that prove the language's potential beyond iOS. My work demonstrates that Swift's type safety and expressiveness make it ideal for building robust web applications.

Production Applications

  • Boiler - Batteries-included Swift web framework with sensible defaults

πŸ’Ό Professional Work

Legal Technology Advisor - Bridging law and code for groundbreaking life sciences:

πŸ“Š Impact

  • 70+ open source packages demonstrating hypermodular architecture
  • Production systems serving real users, not just demos
  • Swift 6.0 strict concurrency throughout entire ecosystem
  • Type-safe from database to DOM - compile-time guarantees everywhere
  • Dual licensing strategy - Apache 2.0 for swift-*, AGPL for coenttb-*

🎯 Philosophy

I build tools that make wrong things impossible. Every abstraction removes entire classes of errors. My frameworks don't just work - they teach you how to build better systems.

Core beliefs:

  • Type safety is a feature, not overhead
  • Swift's future extends far beyond Apple platforms
  • The best code is code that guides its users
  • Building in public accelerates everyone's learning
