I've been a S/W engineer and Web developer for over 20 years.

S/W Engineer

I have used HTML and CSS for a long time. I try to stay on top of the latest W3C standards and specs. It's really amazing to now see what can be done with HTML5 and CSS3.

I'm the leading Bootstrap expert on StackOverflow, and I'm the creator of Bootply, the Bootstrap Playground. 

Wow. I've been using JS for a really long time. I remember using it circa 1997 when the File API was the new "kewl" thing. Of course lately JavaScript is really huge with ES6 and tons of JS frameworks. I have worked with most of them.

I developed the entire Bootply.com backend API on NodeJS using Express and CouchDB. I have a lot of experience with routing, API development, modules and middleware.

I have developed several WordPress themes and customized WordPress extensively. I have also set-up and configured WP sites and plugins.

I used Airtable and ReactJs to create the directory "stash" app of Bootstrap resources. http://bootstrap4.guide/

Top Bootstrap 4 contributor on StackOverflow! I've been using BS4 since the alpha release. I have written numerous layouts, themes and projects on Bootstrap 4.

I've used Flexbox layouts for many projects, authored articles on Flexbox vs CSS Grid.

I've built several sites and projects with React 16. You can see examples of these here:  https://github.com/themesguide. I'm very familiar with page life cycle events, async behavior and Component development.

I've worked on several project that utilize Vue 2 and the latest Vue CLI 3. I'm familar with page lifecycle, data stores, components and many parallel projects such as Vuetify, Vuex, Axios, etc..

My AngularJS experience comes from a few projects that required an Angular based API client / front-end. It's great for single page apps, but I've used it for apps with complex routing as well.

I'm very familar with CSS and media queries. I've produced a lot of responsive designs. In fact just about all of the templates and layouts I create now are 100% responsive so they work well and look great on all devices --- desktop, laptop, tablet, smartphone, etc...

I've earned the SASS badge on StackOverflow, and have a lot of experience with SASS variables, mixins, extend and import. Usually I use a tool such as node-sass via NPM to compile from SASS to CSS.

I have experience creating Web apps that use firebase for data and file storage. Also set up cloud functions that use HTTP request and database maintainence using r/t database triggers. 

I've hosted many NodeJS sites on Heroku so I'm familar with various aspects including configuration, SSL, add-ons and dynos.

I hosted several site backends at Parse.com and can help with the transtionion away from Parse including migration and setting up the open source apps such sa parse-server and parse-dashboard

I have written many package.json and Webpack config files, and used NPM in many environments.

Constantly use Git for just above all version control, and dev environments I've worked on in the last 5 years.

I have used Chart.js for many projects and custom themes when there has been a requirement to show metric, stats and analytics. 

I have worked a lot with the Twitter API and can help with user auth, user info, tweeting, unfollowing, hashtag data, etc..
