User:Aaronw

Hi, I'm Aaron Wells. I've been a full-time web developer since 2004, working mostly in PHP, Java, and PL/SQL (crazy, huh?). I've been at Catalyst IT since 2010, working on Moodle and Totara. I joined our Mahara team as lead developer in early 2013.

Rewriting Mahara dev documentation

The Mahara wiki's developer documentation is kind of a mess. Eventually I want to clean it up and flesh it out. For now, I'm going to create pages here, under my wiki page, and when I have time perhaps I can incorporate them into a new cleanup.
