Behold! The Gates of Dan.
Greetings traveler. I am Dan , the guardian of
this domain.
In ages past, I soared through the heavens astride great metal dragons.
But in 2012 another magic called to me: the ancient art of software crafting.
I now serve the legendary builders of Framer
from my Fortress of Contemplation.
As Battlemage of the Backend Voids, I wield arcane spells and command vast armies of
immortal Gophers to SHAPE THE DIGITAL AETHER TO MY WILL!
Maniacal laughter echoes through the load balancers...

Behold! The Fortress of Contemplation.
But that is not all. I also practice the dark arts of Pastromancy:
fueled by dough, I feast on cinnamon buns to make my power (and waistline) grow!
When I'm not keeping the digital aether online (or resisting the baked
temptations of evil), you will find me lost in tomes of epic adventure
or wandering the countryside beyond my keep.
Go forth and explore Dan's Land:
Fantasy map of Dan's Land with four clickable locations: The Gates of
Dan (Home), Guardian's Keep (About), Garden of Knowledge (Digital
garden) and Chaos Fields (GitHub).
