A Very Brief History of Neil

2005-2018: Webdesign + Cybersecurity: I studied at both Avans Hogeschool (Multimedia Design) in Den Bosch and Fontys Hogeschool (ICT + Cybersecurity) in Eindhoven.
2024: Core Development: Forked ClassicPress (a fork of WordPress) to make it more 'White Label'. The overall goal was to create a decentralized plugin repository, but I didn't want to force the GPL license + limits on the new ecosystem.
2025: Own Core: Wrote WhiteLabelPress (WLP) from scratch, SOUL licensed (allowing developers to legally protect their PHP code), mostly WordPress Compatible while Improving the Scalability & AI Friendlynesss (PHP Swoole Server + Postgresql, no Apache2 needed). Currently online as SaaS at https://mywlp.eu. Source code release TBA.

Future Focus: EU Tech Ecosystem & EU Tech Independence.
