Hi. I’m Andreu Botella (pronouns they/them), a web browser and standards
engineer working at Igalia. I’m currently working on
various things in the Chromium browser engine
(which powers browsers such as Google Chrome), largely involving website layout.
I also work on the WinterCG project, helping bring
features highly wanted by server-side JavaScript runtimes into the web and JS
standards, and implementing them in browsers and JS engines – particularly
AsyncContext.
Some of the areas of the web platform and browsers that I have worked on are
character encodings, form submission, the multipart/form-data form submission
encoding, web workers, structured cloning, text editing and layout, JavaScript
realms and ShadowRealm, among
others. I have contributed to several of the WHATWG and
W3C web specifications, and worked on all three mainstream
browser engines, as well as made extensive contributions to the
Deno JavaScript runtime.
Before I started working on web browsers and standards, I used to be a full-stack web developer, with experience working with languages, runtimes and frameworks such as Node.js, React, Next.js, Express.js and PHP.
Other interests of mine include math, physics, linguistics, music…
