Graham Ashton

You’ve stumbled across the site of Graham Ashton — a web developer from Manchester who currently works in London. I develop web apps using Ruby on Rails, Sinatra and Django, and enjoy creating really slick user interfaces with web standards and unobtrusive JavaScript.

I’m the author of Nesta, a file based CMS and maintain a Ruby oriented blog over at Effectif Development.
