Open Source PHP Framework (originally from EllisLab)

Hello world

my name is Nikos , I come from Greece and I live on the beautiful island of Crete.

I have worked as a web developer for the last 14 years and I am still passionate about learning what’s new in web technologies.

I'm currently working at Phaistos Networks S.A. as a Lead Developer.

If you are looking for a huge fan of VueJS and Codeigniter, you just found it.

I've built more than 170 custom premium websites from scratch with custom CMS for every client, as a result of which I gained a lot of experience on backend development, frontend development, SEO optimization and servers configuration.

For my backend development I use PHP and MySQL mainly, but also I've worked with projects that need nodejs and mongodb.

For my frontend development I use of course HTML with PHP, CSS and Javascript. For my CSS I use SASS.

Except from Vanilla Javascript, I use VueJS (that I really love) and React (that I really love to hate). For the JS automations I use Webpack and Gulp.

The last thing I've learned and I am very excited about is Docker and docker-compose.

Currently I'm learning Angular and Typescript.

My favorite editor is VSCode (previously was SublimeText) with a ton of extensions to improve my workflow and day to day tasks.

My favorite OS ( after more than 12 years working with my friend Tux on Ubuntu machines only), is Windows with WSL2. The perfect combination. Stable, fast, and with WSL2 you can run Ubuntu, Kali, Debian, Suse and Fedora at the same time ... magic.

For server management I've used cPanel with WHM mainly but also Plesk.

For my personal repos I'm using mainly Bitbucket.

I've also have a strong background as a CGArtist with experience on design apps like Photoshop, Illustrator, Painter and Flash. And experience in 3D Animation with Blender, Maya and zBrush.

In my free time I love taking my 🚴‍♂️ bike for a spin and playing with my electric 🎸guitar.

thank you for your time to read about me :) , feel free to contact me on my social media
