Drupal developer · Rabat, Morocco
Drupal developer focused on institutional and multilingual websites.
I build and maintain Drupal sites — custom modules, multilingual content, API integrations and version migrations. I maintain AI Content Translator, a contributed module on Drupal.org covered by the security advisory policy.

AI Content Translator
Automatic translation that respects the work of human translators. It marks the text it generates, so a routine translation run refreshes only its own output and leaves human-written or human-edited translations alone.
- Fingerprints its own output, so human-written or human-edited translations are only replaced when you explicitly ask
- Works with OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, and local OpenAI-compatible servers such as Ollama
- Translates nodes, taxonomy terms and interface strings, with optional recursion into Paragraphs
- Configurable prompt templates and optional per-language glossaries
- Long runs go through Drupal's Batch API
- Status
- Stable release
- Compatibility
- Drupal 11 & 12
- License
- GPL-2.0
- Security
- Advisory policy coverage
“Human-authored or human-edited translations stay untouched unless an overwrite is explicitly requested.”

About
I'm a Drupal developer based in Rabat. I work at FORNET, a web agency whose clients are largely public institutions and international organisations, which is where most of my experience with institutional websites comes from — multilingual content, editorial workflows, content modelling and long maintenance cycles.
Before FORNET I worked at Pyxicom on agency web projects, and started out as a .NET developer at ANCFCC, Morocco's land registry and cartography agency.
I contribute back to Drupal where I can. AI Content Translator came out of a practical problem on multilingual projects: automatic translation is useful, but it shouldn't quietly overwrite what a translator wrote.
