If you enjoy my work, follow me @hakimel to see the latest updates.

My projects range from useful apps and interface libraries to pointless animations and minimalist games. This site is focused on my personal work. I've excluded all projects that I worked on at my past jobs.

Most of my projects are available open source so you can freely modify, improve or remix them.

Q&A

• I'm born and raised in Sweden and currently live in Jönköping. In the past, I've lived in Stockholm, San Francisco and New York.
• I co-founded and am working full time on Slides. A platform for creating, presenting and sharing slide decks.
  Slides is based on reveal.js — an open source HTML presentation framework that I first released in 2011 and still maintain today.
• I started out at Fi – a digital production company in Stockholm. During my five years with Fi I had the opportunity to lead the development of projects for clients including Google, BBC, Nintendo and SAS.
  Then I moved halfway across the world to join Qwiki, a silicon valley startup. Qwiki was acquired by Yahoo in 2013.
  After Qwiki I joined Squarespace as their Lead Interface Engineer.
• Not for now. I'm focusing all my time on making Slides the best it can be.
