Development
Laravel and Drupal
Most of my day-to-day work lives in the PHP ecosystem, with Laravel and Drupal as recurring tools rather than abstract buzzwords.
Personal site and journal
Fernando builds FLOSS with FLOSS.
Full Stack developer working across PHP, Laravel, Drupal, automation, and scripting. This site is where I publish blog posts about code, open source, and the practical side of shipping useful things.
What lives here
A developer site, not a brochure
The homepage stays personal, the blog stays technical, and the whole thing stays portable: plain files, static output, and no unnecessary publishing friction.
Automation
Scripts that remove friction
Automation Ops and script writing are part of how I work: reduce repetition, make systems clearer, and keep delivery practical.
Open Source
FLOSS all the way down
I care about Free/Libre Open Source Software, open standards, and publishing on infrastructure I can inspect and control.
How I work
Technical practice with community behind it
Community
Fedora Ambassador and Drupal Brazil Community Leader
Community work matters to me. Open source is not only a stack choice, it is also a cultural choice about how people build together.
Elsewhere
Follow the work
You can find me on GitHub, LinkedIn, Mastodon, and Pinkary when the conversation moves beyond the blog archive.
Style
Readable, fast, and inspectable
That is the bar for the code I like to ship and for the websites I like to maintain over time.

Working across PHP, Laravel, and Drupal
The stack I keep returning to, why it still works for me, and how I think about moving between product code, CMS work, and custom applications.
Automation as a working habit
Why I keep writing scripts, where automation pays off most, and how I think about reducing operational friction without creating new complexity.
FLOSS is still a practical choice
Why Free/Libre Open Source Software still shapes how I choose tools, work with communities, and think about the web.
Current direction
Building a personal site that reflects how I actually work.
HydePHP gives me Markdown where writing matters, Blade where structure matters, and static output where long-term maintenance matters.
