Languages

  • Typescript

    Been using typescript for around 3 years now, love the type safety it provides and the intellisense in vscode is a cherry on top.

  • React

    Started with React in 2018 working for Cerner and have used it in every job since. Simple, easy to understand and the documentation and support is great.

  • Node.js

  • AWS

  • GraphQL

  • Postgres

    Simple relational databases are still cool.

  • Tailwind CSS

    Understandably divisive but really helps me build fast and eventually the long classnames become legible and it's nice to just have them in the same file instead of switching back and forth between css and your js components.
