Hi, I’m Wim
My name is Wim Griffioen and for over twenty years I've had a passion for everything related to the internet and software development. In my first year of secondary school I built my very first website about Formula 1 and I haven't stopped building websites, apps and SaaS platforms since. Since 2026 I've been doing this under the name Command-G, building websites, API integrations and apps for consumers and businesses.
Outside of work I'm just as happy making things. I love spending long hours in the kitchen cooking or baking. To stay fit I ride my road bike as much as I can. I also enjoy reading and gaming, and I love to travel.
Why Command-G?
The G in Command-G stands for my last name: Griffioen, Dutch for "griffin", the mythical creature that is half lion, half eagle. As an avid Apple fan, a name based on a keyboard shortcut felt right immediately. And Command-G has another meaning too: it's the shortcut for "find next". That feels fitting: I'm always looking for the next solution, the next challenge, the next piece of the puzzle.
Tools
I'm a big fan of the Laravel framework and its ecosystem. With over 20 years of PHP experience, I use Laravel to build technically complete solutions quickly.
I work with:
Laravel, Livewire, Filament, Alpine JS, VueJS and Tailwind CSS
PHPStorm for writing code
Statamic when I need a CMS
Sketch for creating digital designs
