My name is Jing Gu. I am a senior developer, specializing in Angular projects.
I live in Montreal, Canada.
I love food, traveling and component-based object-oriented programming.
What I do mostly:
- Work on front-end architecture and REST API communication with the Back-end (Python, FastAPI, Django)
- Create reusable component-based UI elements
What I have done or contributed:
- Developed an Angular UI library (lead)
- Developed an Angular web app that manages audits for auditors and inspectors (lead)
- Developed an Angular web app that promotes cognitive health to reduce the Alzheimer risk (team)
- Developed an Ionic hybrid mobile app that provides a variety of games for school and childcare workers (team)
My daily tech stack includes:
- Angular
- TypeScript
- RxJs
- TailwindCSS
- SASS
- Ionic
- Contentful CMS
- Git and Github
Other experience:
- Python, FastAPI
- Node, MEAN stack
- React
- Gatsby
- Astro
- Storybook
What I like:
I love using Figma for the app mockups, and draw.io for the diagrams.
I have a penchant for documenting things and depending on the purpose or scale, I’ll use Gitbook, Docusaurua, Notion, or Obsidian (best ever!).
I use Ubuntu for myself and Windows for work.
I like IT fictions, and I believe all software developers should read this one: The Phoenix Project by Gene Kim, George Spafford, and Kevin Behr.
