Daniel Olov Mostad

// Who is Daniel Olov Mostad?

Daniel Olov Mostad — also written Daniel Mostad or Daniel Olov — is a full-stack developer from Drammen, Norway, currently working as an IT developer apprentice at Visma Flyt in Oslo. He has been programming since he was around ten years old, when Minecraft command blocks quietly turned into real code.

Daniel works across the whole stack: Vue, Next.js, React and Tailwind on the front end; Node, Express and C#/.NET on the back end; PostgreSQL, MariaDB, MySQL and Redis for data. Off the clock he also builds 3D worlds in Blender and Unreal Engine — to him, 3D is just code with vertices.

// What is Zingico?

Zingico is the personal brand of Daniel Olov Mostad. When someone refers to "Zingico", they mean Daniel — it is the name his portfolio, projects and developer work live under at zingico.com.

Think of Zingico as the studio name on the door: a single developer who builds scalable, well-engineered web applications and the occasional 3D experiment.
