Tristan White

I make software, and the companies around it.

My name is Tristan White, and I build software companies in Denmark. I've been making things on the internet for as long as I can remember. What started as curiosity, writing HTML in a text editor and pushing pixels around to see what would happen, became a career, then a set of companies, then something closer to a philosophy about how technology should feel.

I'm the founder and CEO of Senbee A/S, the digital workplace for coworking spaces and offices alike. It's one platform where operators manage their space end to end, and where members book rooms, access services, and interact with everything their workspace offers.

I also own and run Cloudportal A/S, which provides cloud, hosting, and managed infrastructure services. It gives businesses reliable, professionally managed infrastructure without the complexity of doing it themselves.

Before all of that I worked as a cloud engineer, a fullstack developer, and an IT consultant, and I've shipped more side projects than I can comfortably admit to. Among them was ColorDrop, a color palette tool I built in 2015, grew to thousands of users, and sold in 2024. The rest live on in the archive.

How I think

I'm still technical. I write code, care about how CSS renders, and think deeply about performance and architecture. But I'm not only a developer. I care just as much about people, about building strong teams, and about creating businesses that work in the real world.

Taste matters in technology. The craft of building software is as much about what you leave out as what you put in.

I'm drawn to classical aesthetics and to the idea that old things often have more to teach us than new things. I believe in building slowly, thinking carefully, and shipping work you're not embarrassed by a year later.

Elsewhere on this site

Outside of work, I read widely: history, philosophy, design, and a steady diet of science fiction. This site is my corner of the internet, a record of what I'm thinking, what I'm reading, and what I'm building. It's not a portfolio; it's more of a commonplace book.
