Hi, I'm Aaron Crowder. Or—if you know me online—CrowderSoup.

Father of two, Software developer, and lover of the open web. I like to take things apart (and sometimes even put them back together). I can frequently be found tinkering with some bit of code in my spare time.

Pronouns: He/Him, They/Them

Today Azure and I went wandering around downtown St. George. We stumbled across this street art by Pepe Gaka and I had to take a picture to look up later.

Someday I'm going to finally build my app to map and tag street art!

    Bonus: Link Previews!

I'm making this a photo post because the photo slider got an upgrade.

Previously it was purely HTML/CSS which is fine. However, I decided to progresively enhance it with some simple JS to add some controls to make scrolling more smooth.

As a bonus I also added Open Graph data to every page. Now when you share links to my blog the link previews work!
