About Me
I am currently a front-end developer based in Bucharest, Romania. I used to play with Vue and Nuxt.js, currently using React as it integrates wonderfully with TypeScript and an FP paradigm.
Sometimes I also dive into back-end code with Node.js, Express and MongoDB.
I don't argue for the use of one specific framework or technology, instead I am inclined towards the versatility and excitement of learning and using new tools regularly.
I love game development and I have experience with Phaser.js and the Unity Engine, having developed a handful of browser games.

Knight fighting AR game
An AR mobile mini game that detects a ground picture and starts a knight fighting game. One knight is AI-driven and the other one can be controlled via on-screen buttons. The game is part of a bigger AR team project for an interactive museum for which I also implemented a 3d person guide that describes different paintings in the museum the user points his camera at.

Youtube tutorial creator website template
Worked on a Vue.js website template for showcasing a Youtube tutorials creator. It integrates with Firebase for saving videos' / playlists' titles and descriptions and it fetches the content from a specific YT channel via the Youtube API directly. The admin page enables splitting tutorials into categories, fetching new ones or removing some of them, reordering them, etc.

Kitty Clicker Game
Kitty Clicker is developed in 24 hours as a challenge for myself. The game is developed with a Java back-end server which has a REST API for the JavaScript and HTML front-end. It also uses a MySQL database as storage, and falls back to file storage when the db is unavailable.
