About

I’m Lloyd Watkin. I build web applications for a living, and spend the rest of my time on trails or in the workshop.

By day I’m the principal engineer at Olio, an app that connects neighbours and local businesses so surplus food and household items get shared rather than thrown away.

This site is where I write about AI, coding, running and DIY projects, share 3D models I’ve designed, and keep a few small tools that run in the browser. The talks section has slides from conference talks I gave about XMPP and realtime web apps.

You can find my code on GitHub, photos on Instagram, and my work history on LinkedIn.
