About

Full Stack Web Developer | JavaScript, Node.js, React, Vue, PHP, Linux, Etc.. | 20 Years of Expertise.

I'm a seasoned Full Stack Web Developer with a passion for crafting innovative and user-friendly digital solutions. With 19 years of hands-on experience, I have worked with JavaScript, Typescript, Node.js, React, Vue, PHP, Linux, and their related technologies.

Throughout my career, I have successfully delivered numerous end-to-end web applications, employing my knowledge in both front-end and back-end development. I excel at creating dynamic and responsive user interfaces using JavaScript frameworks like React and Vue (along with their server side counterparts Next and Nuxt)

Started working with the dawn of the dynamic web, I have seen everything come and pass, from the days where you had to write your own PHP frameworks and there was no Ajax, to our current days where JS actually has parallel processing and is surprisingly good for processing large quantities of batch data.

Logistica Dynamica

Development of an application that allows the revision of inventory and movements to the clients, via web (It's a warehouse company), using a MSSQL backend. It Offered an excellent opportunity to take my Framework to the limits of it's own practicality.

Specially notable a fully customizable report system that left me with an Interactive-DigItUp view on reports (against static, not interactive one level reports that I used to see everywhere before that)

Sysadmin of various flavors of servers; Suse, Debian and Slackware; a Mix of flavors which by the way I was never so thrilled about, but allowed me to experiment with them in a 24/7 environment.

Teacher

Escuela Profesional de Desarrollo Integral

Details

Giving the "Software Engineering"class, it was an interesting opportunity to get out of the superficiality of PHP workshops, by taking my students into deeper development themes.

My personal pride is that even when I didn't give a deep 'language' oriented class, my students had taken his own path in PHP, Ajax, CSS, MySQL, etc.. very successfully.

While they have a strong foundation in subjects as MVC, Version Control, Agile Development and RUP. That will serve a greater good when current technologies pass away.
