Benito Lopez

Hey there 👋, I’m Benito. I’m a software engineer with over 10 years of experience and a solid front-end and back-end development background. I’m passionate about solving problems and constantly learning.

As a WordPress specialist, I've spent the last decade building themes, plugins, and custom solutions that power thousands of websites worldwide. Throughout my WordPress journey, I achieved Elite Author status on Envato's marketplace (Lollum themes) and now I'm part of the team behind Uncode, one of the most popular WordPress themes on the market.

Projects and Selected Works

• Uncode - Top seller WordPress theme. I mainly deal with the backend, React (building components for the Block Editor) and the development of advanced and custom features for WooCommerce.
• WP Hotelier - A WordPress booking plugin for building hotel websites.
• Hotel Datepicker - A pure JavaScript date range picker for hotels or booking websites. It was tricky but fun to develop!
• ssnipp - Minimalist and private code snippet sharer written in Go. I use it to share snippets with my clients.

Personal

Born in Switzerland, raised in Spain, and living in Italy, I'm a father of two with diverse interests. Music plays a significant role in my life — I enjoy playing guitar, particularly exploring jazz, experimental, noise, electronic, and ambient genres. I also spend time reading books and comics.

Mathematics is another big passion, and after taking a few years away from formal education, I decided to return to academia and am now pursuing a BSc in Mathematics.
