Robert Beekman
Hi there! My name is Robert Beekman, developer, photographer and longboarder.
I love creating scalable webapplications, created pragmatically, with both "boring" and new technologies, whatever is best suited for the job. I made the first commit to AppSignal, where I'm still happily employed. In my free time I like to travel, mainly to Asia and when I'm not abroad I regularly take my longboard out for a spin.

Switching to Svelte
I have rewritten my middleman site to Svelte/SvelteKit, here's what I encountered.
Remote uploads with pre-signed URLs on Scaleway's object storage.
Or, make sure your headers match, otherwise you'll get a lot of strange errors.
Upload a file to an AWS pre-signed S3 url with RestClient.
Or, how something so simple cost me so much time.
