Skills

With over 10 years of experience, I gained a broad set of skills. I am eager to expand my knowledge. I do the following:

TypeScript

TypeScript allows us to write more predictable web apps. I have advanced experience with TypeScript including more abstract types.
React

A great choice to build big, complex web apps. Tools include: Styled Components, Redux, Redux-Saga, MobX, React Spring and Next.js for server-rendered apps.
Vue.js

Vue.js is a very nice alternative to React. I use Vuex for complex state management, Vue Router for routing and Anime.js for animations.
Design Systems

I love implementing design systems within your organisation. I use Storybook as the main tool for development. Design tools include: Sketch and Figma.
Node.js

Experience with Node.js on the server with Koa and Express. Websockets with Socket.IO. Build tools include Lerna for mono-repos and Webpack to run Babel & PostCSS.
Swift

I build iOS apps in Swift. I prefer functional reactive programming with RxSwift. I dislike Interface Builder, so I write Auto Layout programmatically.
Golang

My preferred way to build blazing fast and stable APIs and microservices. I use Chi, Echo, wbs, SQLX and more.
PHP

PHP is my first backend programming language. I have experience with Laravel, Slim, Twig, Intervention Image and more.
Ruby

In Ruby I can build web apps and RESTful APIs by using Ruby on Rails, Sinatra or Grape. Sidekiq for background work.
