My name is Alain — “Alocean”. I learned to code as a kid, copying out programs on Atari, Amstrad and Amiga. Today I build websites and iOS & Android apps. Forty years of passion, still intact.
I code in the evenings and on weekends, for the pure joy of creating. Apps published on the stores… and websites for my friends, my family and the people around me.
Apps designed for real needs, published on the App Store and Google Play — from idea to release.
I build websites for my friends, family and acquaintances — out of passion, whenever a project speaks to me and makes me want to dive in.
Programming is still my playground. Evenings and weekends, I keep learning, tinkering and creating — just like when I was 10.
Apps designed for real needs — accessibility, health, inclusion and exploration.
Hand-coded, as a tribute to the machines of my childhood — Atari, Amstrad, Amiga. Playable right here, right now.
A life in pixels — from a curious kid fixing a discarded TV to building apps.
A TV rescued from the street, repaired all on my own. The revelation: you can understand, fix, create.
ZX81, then Atari 800XL: lines and lines of BASIC. “One day, I'll have a computer.”
464, then 6128: tapes, floppy disks, a dot-matrix printer. Programming, swapping, discovering.
Amiga 500, then 2000. No longer just playing: I'm making demos with a team of enthusiasts.
Hotline, shops, trade fairs. Stars in people's eyes. “I'm exactly where I'm meant to be.”
A WEB-J before YouTubers existed, then an entrepreneur. Life's turns, all the way to Switzerland.
Several years freelancing: computer repair and IT training for seniors. Passing knowledge on, reassuring, making tech accessible to everyone.
Today I support people with disabilities at the Les Perce-Neige Foundation in Switzerland, in the canton of Neuchâtel. And in the evenings and on weekends, I keep coding: websites and apps. The loop is closed — from the kid copying out programs to the creator publishing them on the stores.
An idea, a wish, a question — write to me, I love building useful things.
