Hi, I'm Raphael.

I mainly spend my days running a software business called rami.io GmbH. Our products include the ticketing software pretix, the live event platform Venueless, and the Android app Web Opac App. I'm also a co-founder at abiapp.net.

I'm enthusiastic about open source software and you can find a lot of code written by me on GitHub.

I'm active on Twitter and Mastodon, but you can also find me on LinkedIn.

I live in Heidelberg, Germany. As a hobby, I like to help co-organize events like MRMCD or Chaos Communication Congress.

Talks
