Statement

I am considering changing my profession toward front-end development. I have no commercial experience yet and the code examples are limited to assignments from online courses. Therefore I am ready to complete the test task to show my ability for self-education and practical application of skills.

Skills:

  • HTML

    I know on a basic level how to optimize loading CSS styles and JS scripts. I am able to make up interfaces taking into account the built-in capabilities of the web platform:
    use special tags for page layout;
    pay attention to heading levels;
    checking access to all interactive elements using the keyboard.

  • CSS

    I use basic BEM principles when styling the page. I can create a responsive layout using media expressions. Mainly I use flexbox to position elements relative to each other. I have the basic knowledge to create transitions and animations.

  • JavaScript

    I know basic JS primitives, understand how to work with Promise and async / await syntax. I understand the difference between arrow functions and classical functions.

  • React

    I have a basic understanding of how React works. I know how to create applications using Create React App. I can:

    • create separate pages using React Router;
    • isolate component styles with CSS Modules and Styled Components
  • Git

    I know the Git commands at a basic level. In the process of work I use the "one commit, one task" approach. I can work with pull requests.

  • Development environment

    I use the Visual Studio Code editor with the Prettier plugin for easy code formatting.

  • Other skills:

    Adobe Photoshop, Figma, English (upper-intermediate), Trello
