About Me

Problem-Solving Software Engineer focuses on smart & responsive Front End Development. 8+ years of experience in Modern Web technologies with a wide range of JavaScript Frameworks. Developed 30+ sites in a variety of industries such as software, real estate, e-commerce, education, etc.

Tech Stack

I have focused mainly on JavaScript Frameworks such as React, Next, Vue, Nuxt etc.

React

Version 16
Version 18

React is my favourite and proud framework in my career. For almost 8 years I have been using React as the Front end framework on nearly all my projects. I am a React Certificated Developer and passed the certification exam with the React organization. Through out my time working with React I've touched almost every part of their development ecosystem; using the authentication scaffolding, payment scaffolding, deployment management, and more...

Svelte

In last years, have participated in several Svelte projects as a founding engineer for robust applications and handled issues and challenges so that gained hands-on experience.

Tailwind CSS

I started using Tailwind CSS since it's launch in 2018 and it quickly became a staple in all my projects. I regularly use it when creating custom components because I prefer to use native elements with styling over javascript based components when possible. Using Purge and JIT compiling to ensure the smallest file size and fatest page load times.

Flowbite
Mamba UI
Headless UI
Chakra UI

Integration part was the most challenging and motivative part in my career, so I have gained hands-on experience in Backend Frameworks also. I mainly participated in Laravel, Django projects. Staying up-to-date is my preference, and I am always trying to learn new technologies.
