SCROLL TO EXPLOREWHAT DO I DO
I'm a Java developer with experience building backend applications, web platforms, APIs, Minecraft server software, and FIP gauges (XML). I enjoy working on projects from the ground up - from designing application architecture and database structures to implementing backend logic, integrations, and user interfaces.
My primary language is Java, with experience across a range of frameworks, libraries, APIs, and development tools:
Java
- Apache Maven
- Spring Framework / Spring Boot
- Thymeleaf
- HikariCP
- REST APIs
- Spigot, Paper, BungeeCord, Waterfall, Velocity
Web
- HTML
- CSS
- JavaScript
Databases & Infrastructure
- PostgreSQL
- MariaDB
- MySQL
- Redis
- Docker
Development Tools
- IntelliJ IDEA
- Visual Studio Code
- Eclipse IDE
- Sublime Text
I have experience throughout the development process, including planning and designing features, writing and testing code, working with databases, managing dependencies, configuring development environments, deploying applications, and maintaining projects over time. Most of my experience comes from building my own projects, giving me practical experience with both individual technologies and complete software systems.
