about me.
Nice to meet you!
Name's Jan-Luca, Frontend Developer and UI Designer
Currently I have over four years of practical experience in developing digital products. It is especially important to me to write Code that's easy to understand as well as to maintain. Moreover I love to create beautiful and eye-catching desings.
The interest in web development already developed in my youth, which was greatly incfluenced and then also encouraged by my Dad, who at that time build some websites himself, like the one for his online magazine.
My first own project was a pokemon fanpage, where I would post news and useful information about the games. Though it was build with a homepage builder, I got my first experience with HTML and CSS through building the Theme. In the following years I extended my knowledge and learned new things like WordPress and PHP. Furthermore I got the chance to deepen that knowledge in my school's IT course.
After school, in 2018, i then began my training as a Webdeveloper at a german digital agency. In the first two years I was mainly active in backend development, but I also got the chance to get more in contact with Frontend Development and also learned new things, for example how to use Design-Tools like Adobe XD or Sketch.
And over time, I realized that I felt much more comfortable in frontend development rather than in the backend, so I decided to shift my focus entirely. After successfully completing my training, I started a position as a Junior Frontend Developer in another German digital agency. Since July 2023, I am a Senior Frontend Developer in the same agency. Since then I’m taking responsibility for the entire frontend department and supervising all todos. In my current position, I am primarily responsible for developing Shopware 6 themes and plugins using JavaScript & SCSS, as well as implementing, maintaining, and extending VueJS and NuxtJS applications. Additionally, I also build dynamic PDF generators using the PDFlib PHP Library and work with ExtJS to implement UIs in Pimcore 10 and 11. As a Senior Frontend Developer, I also plan all upcoming projects, ensuring appropriate task allocation and handling technical conceptualizations. Furthermore, I provide training to our apprentices in frontend topics, familiarizing them with the tasks at hand and supporting them throughout their training.
Even in my free time, my mind is wrapped up with frontend development and design. I particularly love building applications using VueJS or NuxtJS and frequently work on smaller projects to keep my knowledge up to date and expand it even further.
