ABOUT ME
Enthusiastic and experienced Python and JavaScript developer, particularly interested in web applications.
Enthusiastic and experienced Python and JavaScript developer, particularly interested in web applications.

I love software development, it's what I knew I wanted to be doing for the rest of my life since I was sixteen and, indeed, it's what I've been doing since I graduated college as a Systems Engineer (mostly computer science) in 2013. I particularly love the web, it's the closest we've come to an universal platform and so, by working on the web I feel I'm reaching the most people.

I place maintainability above all else when writing my code, which is why I refactor and re-refactor constantly to make the code as easy to read as possible, as well as writing tests for everything (if possible) to prevent regressions. I also like doing operations work - I often dabble with stuff like docker and continuous integration platforms - but always in service to the web applications I prefer writing.

I also like helping other people and answering questions, which is why I keep a fairly active profile in Stack Overflow and contribute to open source projects when I can and feel that the contribution is worthwhile.

Finally, I love movies, feel free to talk to me about cinema, but be warned that I keep going and going.

My favorite language, I love writing python and feel that it's the most clear and expressive language around, making it the best for writing maintainable code, in my opinion. I've written more than a few web applications (both full applications and backends such as REST APIs) and my preferred framework is Flask, though I won't say no to the others, such as Django - the one I've worked with the most - or APIStar. I've also worked with the usual support technologies: ORMs like SQLAlchemy, task queues like Celery, etc. I've even contributed to a couple of libraries and tools and intend to contribute even more, as much as I can.

The language I've been working with for the longest time, which I like almost as much as Python, specially since ES6. Javascript is the lingua franca of the web and I've been working the web frontend since I graduated. I've written code in many different applications with several different frameworks and have always strived to write good code and improve on existing code, following guidelines and best practices of the different frameworks I've encountered. Nowadays, as far as frontend frameworks go, my favorite is Vue. An aside, I'm an user of the Gnome desktop environment - whose shell is written in Javascript - and I've dabbled a bit on modifying some extensions for it.

I've done some operations work, mostly in orchestrating docker containers with docker-compose and setting up continuous integration with tools like Gitlab-CI and Heroku. Always in the service of web development and trying to expand my knowledge base. I also like bash scripting for the sake of avoiding repetition and making my life that bit easier.
