Hi! I'm Myles :)

I'm a web developer

about me

Why, hello there 👋 I'm Myles - a dev, tutor, and mentor - helping dozens of aspiring devs make the transition into tech. I made my transition to development in 2016, working with different languages, frameworks, and libraries throughout the years.

Below is a list of the web tech that I've grown happy to use, but it is not exhaustive. I've also worked with Ruby, C++, C#, Python, and Rust, along with a few popular libraries for those languages - such as Rails(Ruby) and Django(Python).

my current preferred tech

  • React
  • Express
  • Node.js
  • GraphQL
  • Apollo
  • Next.js
  • Chakra UI
  • SASS/SCSS
  • Typescript

In my journey of knowledge growth, I'm also delving into Web3 technologies such as Solidity and smart contract development on the Ethereum blockchain.

If you've got any questions, concerns, or otherwise useful and unuseful comments, feel free to send a DM on Twitter 😀
