My friend worked for a marketing agency that went into a contract with Disney to promote the upcoming animated film "Finding Dory". They finished the design for the meme generator but was in lack of a developer who could make that happen.
The deadline was looming, I helped him by building the generator from ground up within 2 days - during the weekend.
ReactJS, jQuery, FileSaver, GifJS, HTML2Canvas, and FabricJS were used. It is by far the most interesting project I've built, and also in the shortest amount of time.
Hey, Dory fans, feel free to download the wallpaper and the meme.
I strive to become a Pragmatic Programmer. I put special emphasis on software architecture. TDD, SOLID principles and Design patterns are the paradigms I live by as a programmer. I seek the responsibility, whether it is leading a team or owning a feature of the project.
In my free time, I enjoy planting, cooking and writing. I am also a Karate green belt. Practicing strong self-discipline is what makes my life vigorous. As a bookworm and a coffee mania, a good book and an original coffee mug are the best presents for me.
