Royston Shufflebotham is a Front-end developer and architect at i2, in Cambridge, UK.

He got his first taste of coding in 1981, and really hasn't stopped since then, working his way through backend and frontend jobs in text matching, web & PKI infrastructure and crypto, finance, web server software, laboratory automation and investigative analysis, journeying through Quick Basic, Perl, TCL, C++ (several times), Delphi, C#, Java (several times) and JavaScript.

He appears to have finally settled down as a Front-end developer, preferring to work in React and TypeScript.

He also has a very unhealthy fondness for fiddling round with, or writing, developer tools and DevOps instead of writing real production code.

Oh, and in case you're wondering, it's pronounced ˈrɔɪstən ˈʃʌfl̩boθəm (or ˈrɔɪstən ˈʃʌfl̩bəʊθəm if it's easier for you)(guide). Yeah, I'm definitely helping there...
