About

My name is Pete Shearer. I have been a professional software developer with experience dating back to 1998. I started working with VBA, then VB6 – earning my MCSD, on to classic ASP with VBScript, and now C#, ASP.Net. I mostly use Sql Server for back end development (though this blog is hosted using MySql – hey, I’m practical).

I’ve worked for banks, hospitals, consulting companies, a small software development company, health care services companies, an enterprise mobile services company, and now for myself.

Technologies that I’m working with professionally currently include .Net Core, C#, Git, React.js, JavaScript, Sql Server, Flutter, as well as HTML and CSS (naturally – I am not a drag-and-drop developer). I am also doing iOS mobile contracting work and have apps in the iOS App Store and Google Play Store.

Yes, my blog title is a blatant ripoff of Joel on Software, but I consider it more of an homage!

I am married, have 3 kids, and live in Ohio. GO BUCKS!!!
