Most interviews I have conducted & taken cover these 9 areas: - Current role & project - Architecture & full request - Front end dev general - Javascript + framework - Algorithm exerc - OOP & design - Backend & SQL - CI/CD - Methodologies I will do 1 thread a day per area 💪

My first Birthday since I been active on Twitter 🥳! Funnily enough, February has been my least active month, I needed a break, thanks for understanding. I'm super happy to be a part of this amazing community, cheers 🍻! Grab your cake slice 🎂

Software Engineering is the systematic application of engineering approaches and principles to the development of software. Do you want to be a programmer or a software engineer? 🤔

That moment when you finish your code, it passes all the tests, works as expected, but... you push and the CI build breaks 😑

Which part of a project do you enjoy the most? I love to dive into a new domain. Learning everything I can about a business area and how technology can help them thrive is super exciting. Of course, architecture and design mesh in this part too. Greenfield projects are so fun

One of the best tips when onboarding new team members: Do pair programming. Show first, help them do later. They will feel much more confident to tackle user stories or tickets after that! What else do you recommend to make the onboarding easier and faster?

3 Days without coding. Thinking if I remember how to write a lambda function anymore. Better check stackoverflow...

Simple exercise to check your progress: Open a codebase you worked on 2 years ago and look for errors and things that can be improved. Then open a codebase you are currently working on and do the same. Do you see big differences? Do you find things you dont like in your code?

One of the few benefits that 2020 left us was the adoption of remote work for most companies. I have been working full remote for almost 3 years now and it is priceless. You save money You save time You gain freedom

Moments that will blow your mind while learning programming 🤯 🔸Recursion 🔸Polymorphism in object-oriented programming. 🔸High order function in functional programming 🔸Design patterns 🔸How the CPU process with assembler instructions (*) What else do you find CRAZY?

(*) I haven't used the last one at all, but I recall thinking WOW when I learned all the low-level steps it took to do a simple sum with carriage.

Happy Friday my friends 🎉! Reminders: - Learn something new - Take some time for a social activity - Disconnect from work after you are done - Don't deploy (*) Any cool plans for your weekend?

(*) Unless you have all the deployment pipes solved and automated and it is a non-event.

🏆Productivity + Healthy tips ranked 🏆 1_ Take small breaks every 1-2 hours 2_ Close social media and put the phone away during focused work 3_ Sleep 8 hrs +/- 4_ Take a walk when blocked (fresh air and a green view is ideal) 5_ Be conscious of your posture (back will thank u)

Do you know those addictive videos in which someone builds a pool or a house with a stick and natural stuff? I have watched a fair amount of them. Does that mean I can build a pool with a stick? No fucking way. The same applies to building software! 🏗️Projects >>> Tutorials📺

Everybody knows when code is not simple, but do you know when code is not coherent? Coherent code is logical and consistent. Same and intuitive approach to solving problems We don't take diametrical different paths to solve similar problems Establish guidelines -> Coherence 🔼

Some examples, high and low level. Solving reports with DB queries or with code logic. Creating granular and small components and composing them or not. Minimizing side effects? Does your team use tuples? Const? There is usually a better way to do things, but consistency is🔑

Hello everyone 👋! I'm back from a little break. Everything is fine, thanks to those who reached out to ask ^^! Software engineering content coming back every day 💪! Videos will be back in around a week. I need to fix some setup things first. How are you doing?

In case you care, I have been: 1_ Fumigating home 2_ Catching up with friends 3_ Going to social dancing 4_ Playing some chess ♟️ 5_ Working on side projects I hadn't realized how much time I spent on social media every day 😅. But I also missed it :)

Software Development is very similar to entrepreneur shipment 🔹 Continues improvement is required 🔹 Several domains of knowledge is needed 🔹 Embracing failure will go a long way 🔹 Rounding yourself with skillful people is key 🔹 It's a marathon, not a sprint.

That moment when your brand new code runs as expected and you are happy with the design 🔥
