Presented in French by Jérémie Pereira Front-end Developer, Leboncoin

Passionate about the web for 15 years, I am a frontend lead developer at leboncoin, which I joined 9 years ago. I actively participated in the responsive redesign of the site, the total redesign of the frontend stack and I am now passionate about performance, accessibility or developer experience.
