My main focus and passion revolves around designing and developing for the web, but I also have a keen interest and am skilled in the following areas:
- Graphic Design, Brand Design, Photo Editing, Fonts & Typography and Interface Design Design
- 3D Modeling, Video Game Design, Video Production & Editing, Live Streaming
- Configuring Apache servers, setting up Virtual Hosts, enable HTTPS with Let's Encrypt
- Hosting dedicated gaming servers and creating Discord bots
- Administrating of networks, DevOps and pretty much anything to do with Security
- Setting up Linux-based VM's and automating development processes (CircleCI)
So I thought about sharing the apps and tools I use to get things done.
Design Tools
- Figma for prototyping and designing user interfaces
- I use Photoshop, and lately more often that not, Photopea for doing quick edits
Programming Tools
- My primary code editor is Visual Studio Code
- The colour theme I am currently using (and love) is Serendipity
- I use JetBrains Mono as my coding font family
- I use Terminal on Windows and Git Bash in the WSL 2 environment
- I use iTerm2 and Oh My Zsh on macOS
Web Apps Stack
- I use React and Node.js as my primary frameworks when building websites and apps
- For bootstrapping Single Page Apps, I like to use Create React App, but I am also experienced with Gatsby and Next.js
- For CSS frameworks, I have used Tailwind, Bootstrap, Bulma and Tachyons
- CSS processors I've used are CSS Modules and Sass, and I have a particular fondness for the latter
- I have use Emotion and Styled Components for styling React apps.
- To share code or find inspiration I like to use CodePen or CodeSandbox
- I have used WordPress extensively in the past with Roots Sage to build websites that require content management
Other Software I use
- I use Adobe Premier Pro, Premier Rush, After Effects and Shotcut for editing videos
- FFMpeg and LosslessCut to quickly prepare videos for more advanced editing
- I use Blender and Substance Painter for 3D modeling and painting
