My name is Steven Bautista and I am a full stack developer that uses the MERN stack. I am most comfortable working on React or React-native expo projects but will be more than willing to learn a new framework. In my free time, I am currently learning Angular and hope to make more projects with it. I make it a point to stay busy and continuously write code, this can be seen through my contributions on my GitHub profile.
I had done 4 years of programming on and off in college for an Engineering degree. This entailed using python, MATLAB, and C++ for numerical computations. It wasn’t until these last 1.5 years that I received the bulk of my full stack development experience. I am most familiar with React/Typescript and opt to use Next.js to make a SEO friendly website. For a more complicated backend, I use Express.js with Node.js to set up GraphQL or Rest API. For UI/UX, I use Figma/photoshop to create wireframes prior to coding.
For my projects, I usually prefer to use a serverless database such as Planetscale or AWS RDS for relational and MongoDB or Firebase Firestore for non-relational. I am familiar with SQL, specifically MySQL and PostgreSQL, but I find it much easier to use a library such as Prisma or knex.js to communicate with a database.
For frontend development, I really enjoy using Tailwind CSS to quickly set up components and a majority of my projects on my portfolio utilize this. I like to Typescript to avoid any of the complications that come with using only JavaScript. When I’m making a SPA, I use webpack to build my React app. For state management, I have used Redux, Redux-thunk, or Redux-saga in the past depending on the complexity of the situation.
My experience with python in college mainly focused on scripting with ABAQUS and using a raspberry pi microcontroller. I am familiar with the fundamentals of the language and can complete data-analyst-related tasks. Some of the more notable libraries used include NumPy and pandas. My web development-related experience in python includes making a REST Api with flask.py and deploying it with docker on google cloud run.
Though probably not worth mentioning, I am adept with Microsoft Excel and have used it extensively throughout college and my career.
