A guide to MSAL authentication in Vue
Architect a Vue JS app secured with Microsoft Authentication Library
I'm Dave,
I bring a maker's eye with an engineer's hand.
I work on enterprise platforms that handle millions in assets. I build open source libraries that solve real problems. I craft browser extensions used by thousands. I write original articles that people come back to.

Modular site architecture with Nuxt layers
Build sites that scale by organising code by domain, not concern
I started out in Animation and Flash, which taught me how things should feel. I've spent 10 years building web applications, which taught me how things should work.
Now I combine both to create eye-catching and satisfying experiences:
I work in the Vue ecosystem with Nuxt, TypeScript, and complimentary technologies.
Right now I specialise in UI architecture, component libraries, and design systems – but I'm just as comfortable working across the full application stack.
I'm available for contract work or permanent roles where I get to work across design, product, and engineering.
