I had the pleasure of working with Calvin on a coding project involving p5.js, and their expertise was truly impressive. From the moment we started collaborating, it was evident that he had a great understanding of p5.js and its nuances. His explanations were clear, concise, and tailored to my level of understanding, which made the learning process smooth and enjoyable. I highly recommend!
