Danail Hadjiatanasov joins Material-UI

We are excited to share that Danail Hadjiatanasov has joined Material-UI as part of the enterprise team. This was his first full-time week.

For the past 3 years, Danail has been working in a company called Backbase where he was responsible for building a UI library based on Angular that was specifically designed for banks. The UI library and its corresponding design system were sold under a commercial license, and today some of the biggest names in the banking industry have web applications powered by those UI components (RBC, Central 1, Deutsche Bank, BNP Paribas, and others).

Although he was working with Angular, his true passion is React, having hacked side projects with it. Now he will be able to combine these two talents, and help take Material-UI X to the next level!

Danail has already landed his first feature in the data grid: column reordering:

He’s now actively working on new features for the data grid.

The enterprise team will continue developing the data grid component, and progressively extend to new advanced components as we grow the team. Here’s a quick view of the enterprise roadmap.

We couldn’t be more excited to have Danail on the team! You can follow him on Twitter.
