Hi, I'm Omar 👋

I'm a full stack developer (React.js & Node.js) with a focus on creating (and occasionally designing) exceptional digital experiences that are fast, accessible, visually appealing, and responsive. Even though I have been creating web applications for over 5 years, I still love it as if it was something new.

About me

Curious about me? Here you have it:

I'm a passionate, self-proclaimed developer/designer who specializes in full stack development (React.js & Node.js). I am very enthusiastic about bringing the technical and visual aspects of digital products to life. User experience, pixel perfect design, and writing clear, readable, highly performant code matters to me.

I began my journey as a web developer in 2018, and since then, I've continued to grow and evolve as a developer, taking on new challenges and learning the latest technologies along the way. Now, 5 years after starting my web development journey, I'm building cutting-edge web applications using modern technologies such as React.js, JavaScript, Vue.js, Tailwindcss or pure CSS (SASS), Firebase and much more.

I am very much a progressive thinker and enjoy working on products end to end, from ideation all the way to development.

Finally, some quick bits about me.
