About the creator

Marc Bernard

Founder, apm.to Inc.

Over two decades in the SAP ecosystem. Former SAP employee turned independent creator. Deeply involved in the abapGit and ABAP open-source community. I built apm because I saw a fundamental gap: ABAP, one of the world's most widely used enterprise languages, had no easy way for developers to share, version, and reuse code like other modern programming languages do.
