👋 Hello! I'm André, a passionate full stack developer based in Porto, Portugal.
- Languages: C/C++, Python, PHP, TypeScript, JavaScript, Kotlin
- Frameworks: React, React Native, jQuery, QT
- Current Work: Full stack development using PHP, PostgreSQL, JavaScript, jQuery, HTML, and CSS
I'm currently working as a full stack developer, leveraging my skills in PHP, PostgreSQL, JavaScript, jQuery, HTML, and CSS to build robust and efficient web applications.
I'm always eager to expand my knowledge and stay up-to-date with the latest trends in software development. Currently, I'm diving deep into Design Patterns to enhance my coding practices.
In my free time, I enjoy working on personal projects. One of my current endeavors is Update Me, a mobile app that helps users keep track of the latest versions of their favorite modded apps. This project showcases my full-stack development skills:
- Frontend: Built with React Native for a seamless mobile experience
- Native Modules: Implemented in Kotlin for enhanced control and performance on Android
- Backend: Powered by a Python server running on my personal Raspberry Pi
This architecture allows for a responsive user interface, efficient device-level operations, and a flexible, self-hosted backend solution.
I'm an avid reader of programming-related books, always seeking to improve my skills and knowledge. Here's what's on my bookshelf:
- 📖 Currently reading:
Design Patterns: Elements of Reusable Object-Oriented Software
by Erich Gamma, Richard Helm, Ralph Johnson, John Vlissides - 📅 Up next:
Clean Code: A Handbook of Agile Software Craftsmanship
by Robert C. Martin
These books are helping me deepen my understanding of software architecture and best practices in coding.
