Blog

Welcome to my blog

Here, I share my thoughts, tips, and experiences on coding and software development. As a software developer, I am always learning and growing, and I use this blog as a way to document and reflect on the things that have helped me in my work. Whether you’re just starting out in the field or you’re a seasoned pro, I hope you find something useful here.

I decided to write here in English as it is the language of software engineers.

Thanks for stopping by!
