    TypeScript is a superset of JavaScript that compiles to clean JavaScript output.

  • As Microsoft changed their leadership and became a heavyweight in cloud computing, in addition to the enhancements to .NET and their front-end languages (Razor, Blazor, TypeScript), the .NET stack gradually became my preference as I got older. These days I'm a Windows user and a Microsoft enthusiast, but with .NET Core and Visual Studio for Mac being released, not to mention Visual Studio Code, we could all easily use a Mac or a PC, using the language or framework that made the most sense for the current project we're working on.

  • React

    The library for web and native user interfaces.

  • (Angular, React)

  • SurveyJS

    Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc.

  • Foundation

    The most advanced responsive front-end framework in the world. Quickly create prototypes and production code for sites that work on any kind of device.

  • I was definitely not a "full stack developer" on day one, or year one, two or three. At least I didn't call myself one for a long time. For one thing, the term "full stack developer" wasn't popular at the time. But as JavaScript libraries (jQuery) and frameworks (Angular, React) became common place in the industry, and CSS libraries (Bootstrap, Foundation) replaced writing your stylesheets by hand, there became demand to be capable in both the front-end and back-end of an application.

  • Bootstrap

    The most popular HTML, CSS, and JavaScript framework for developing responsive, mobile first projects on the web.
