Hi there! Welcome to my personal website.

This is not just a portfolio or a resume about me. My intention is to create a kind of autobiography of my professional life. I want to share my experiences, my knowledge, how I started and also where I'm going in this fantastic world that many of us call Software.

Small summary of what I do

So, in simple words:

• I analyze.
• I design.
• I code.
• And most importantly, I reach the business goals solving problems with code.

🤔 How do I do it?

I try to understand the business, the goals, and the needs. I also try to apply the software development life cycle (SDLC), that consists of:

• Project Planning: The 'What do we want?' stage with emphasis on cost estimation and requirement definition.
• Gathering Requirements & Analysis: A stage where detailed client requirements are discussed and analyzed.
• Design: The translation of plans and visions into a Software Design Document.
• Coding: Time to code! It means translating the design into a computer language.
• Testing: A critical evaluation to ensure the software works as required.
• Deployment: The system is released for customers to use.
• Maintenance: The problems start when the customer starts using the system.

What do I use?

I try to keep my stacks as simple as possible, I'm currently working with:

• Frontend: React, Next.Js, Astro Build, TailwindCSS, and ShadCN.
• Backend: Node.Js, Express, Firebase, MongoDB, and MySql, PHP.
• Mobile: React Native, Expo.
