blog - Lasconic's notesDesktop, web, mobile and beyond...http://127.0.0.1:2368/Ghost 0.5Mon, 22 Apr 2019 07:30:00 GMT60First post, what to expect<p>I started several blogs along the years. My last attempt was probably around 2011. I hope this one will last longer! So what to expect from this blog?</p>
<h2 id="programmingandsoftwarearchitecture">Programming and software architecture</h2>
<p>I'm currently the CTO at <a href='http://musescore.com/' >MuseScore</a>. Primarly, MuseScore is a desktop application written in C++/Qt. I'm also in charge of the development of the MuseScore mobile apps for both iOS and Android. So I will probably write about Qt, QML, C++ and mobile development.</p>
<p>MuseScore is also two websites <a href='http://musescore.org/' >http://musescore.org</a> and <a href='http://musescore.com/' >http://musescore.com</a>. I'm not the webmaster of these two websites, but I did work on the development of both. The two websites are made with <a href='http://drupal.org/' >Drupal</a> and PHP. In particular, I worked on the <a href='http://developers.musescore.com/' >MuseScore.com API</a> and on the overall architecture of MuseScore.com running on AWS. So you might expect post about Drupal, PHP, Javascript, Java and AWS services.</p>
<p>I'm learning Python which is becoming my scripting language of choice. I also like to dabble in Node.js. And I'm planning to play with Go in the coming months.</p>
<h3 id="musicandmusicnotation">Music and Music Notation</h3>
<p>I'm a drummer and music lover. MuseScore is all about music notation. Expect some posts about music in general, music notation in particular, and maybe drumming.</p>
<h3 id="entrepeneurship">Entrepeneurship</h3>
<p>MuseScore is my first entrepeunarial endeavior. Putting in place a business model around a B2C free and open source software is challenging. I might post about this challenge and about the sheet music and music education market in general.</p>
<h3 id="englishmainly">English mainly</h3>
<p>Maybe you didn't figure it out yet but my mother tongue is French. I'm more confortable with English for technical topics, so I will mainly blog in English.</p>
<p>Happy reading!</p>http://127.0.0.1:2368/first-post-what-to-expect/ff607005-dd48-47c6-ae6b-7da805d0a670blogaboutlasconicWed, 03 Sep 2014 10:04:38 GMT
