Thanks for stopping by! I started my computer programming journey in 2019 and I’ve fallen in love! I’m a Structural Engineer by schooling but man if I could do it over again with the knowledge that I have now...who knows where I’d be! Not sure if you’ve felt that before but I sure do.
This journey has been amazing so far. I love taking a blank document and making something that exists for the whole world to use! I have a passion for making software tools and hopefully you’ll find some of what I’ve created useful!
I’d love to connect! Hit me up below and I look forward to meeting you!
The major focus of my learning path is anything and everything JavaScript based. After trying for several years to teach myself how to become a programmer, I kept getting lost and confused in all of the different technologies that are out there. Because of that I decided to take a different approach.
Rather than blazing through HTML, CSS, and JS I decided to take a more focused approach to the internet from a basic building block perspective. What I learned is that everything....EVERYTHING boils down to the basic building blocks of the Original 3. After spending roughly 6 months on just the Original 3, things began to make total sense!
Because everything needs structure, tags, sections, divs, asides, forms...
I know enough to be dangerous, not the strongest aspect of my development skills if I'm being honest.
So far the framework I enjoy working with the most! It's what styled this website (wink wink)
The first framework I learned in my bootcamp! Still having trouble with flexbox though.
As weird as this will sound, JavaScript is my favorite language so far. Especially with all of the frameworks!
The fact that you don't need a browser to run JavaScript is awesome! Thank you NodeJS...you unsung hero in the programming world!
Now this...this is what makes me happy. For whatever reason Express just makes sense to me. Great platform to build a back end on.
It's the most popular front-end framework...I'd be stupid not to learn it right?
Facebook got it right with building this framework! I thought I was going to have to learn native coding for apps but then this beautiful tool comes along!
I know it's the go to database for JavaScript based software but man do I love me some MongoDB! Best DB out there for beginners in my opinion!
I know this a personal preference but having first learned on VS Code, it's amazing.
God bless the person that invited Git version control. I'd be lost without it.
Got to hand it to Microsoft, smart move buying Github. Do people host code anywhere else?
While I am by NO means a designer, Figma definitely makes it easy. I can handle myself with help from Figma.
Building a budget tool that looks at the personal finance world in a completely new light
I don't use social media a ton because frankly I think it could be better. That's what I'm working on.
Putting the power of tracking our medical history back in the hands of ourselves!
This way...to freedom...
