Summary

I am a software engineer. I solve problems and love challenges. New technologies and development processes drive me and make me happy.
I am one of those who believes that JavaScript is actually a programming language and I love it. The JavaScript world has evolved into an endless ocean of frameworks and possibilities which makes the process of doing things with it so exciting.
While doing things, I like them to be developed within a maintainable architecture and delivered with high quality. I strongly believe that unit tests, automated end-to-end tests, continuous integration and continuous delivery processes should not be just a nice set of buzzwords but a daily routine of any developer. So, your favorite frameworks must keep pace with automation and CI tools. My favorite framework is Vue.js, I am a proud author of a book about it and this book contains a whole chapter devoted to unit and end-to-end testing (https://tinyurl.com/ycpcmc93)

Besides being an engineer and a developer, I am also the co-founder of an educational project based in Ukraine. This is because I'm totally stick to the idea that learning should be fun and this is what we do. I am responsible for maintaining our IT infrastructure, our LMS platform (openEdX) and not letting any of our AWS instances go down. Besides courses we also create interactive books powered by the gitbook platform. This platform is great because it can be easily extended with custom plugins. I also wrote some plugins for gitbook which made me a proud contributor to the open-source community (https://www.npmjs.com/~chudaol)
