## Hi, I'm Martin ([@squidfunk][1])
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I'm a freelance polyglot software engineer and founder from Cologne, Germany
|
|
|
|
with more than 10 years of experience in full-stack web development and system
|
|
|
|
programming. If you're interested in my projects, please see my [CV][2].
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Besides my freelance work I'm currently working on Ginseng, my new company that
|
|
|
|
specializes in layout error detection developing the [Ginseng framework][3] and
|
|
|
|
a complementary service as a replacement for screenshot testing.

## Why another theme?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Some time ago I wanted to release a project to the open, but it was in need of
|

|
|
|
user documentation. I checked out the available tools and stuck with MkDocs,
|

|
|
|
because it was so simple and easy to use. However, none of the available
|
|
|
|
themes convinced me.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I wanted to build something that was usable on all screen sizes from the ground
|
|
|
|
up, something beautiful and practical at the same time. Google's Material Design
|
|
|
|
appeared to be the perfect fit and this something became Material, a Material
|
|
|
|
Design theme for MkDocs.
