Aron Nieminen was a Mojang Studios employee who was in charge of Minecraft – Pocket Edition's development[2] from its conception[3] until December 13, 2012, when Jens Bergensten took over development.[4] He also worked on Scrolls, and together with Daniel Frisk, he developed Pi Edition. Aron worked with Johan Bernhardsson and Tommaso Checchi on Minecraft 's Bedrock codebase.

Aron does not maintain a Twitter account.[2][5] Notch describes him as "Very bright".[6]

Aron started work on the Pocket Edition in early 2011[7][8], and worked primarily alone (partially with Daniel Kaplan and Junkboy) until shortly after 0.3.2 where Johan Bernhardsson stepped in.[9]
