Hi, my name is
Daniel
I build things and explore ideas.
I’m a backend-focused developer who builds practical systems and I love exploring ideas across different disciplines to inspire my work.
01. About Me
Hello! I’m a software developer who loves building practical systems that actually solve problems. I got into software by experimenting with small projects and teaching myself how things work. Breaking things and fixing them taught me more than any tutorial ever could.
I’m not just a developer; I like exploring ideas across many disciplines and pulling inspiration from wherever I find it.
These days I mostly work with Java and Spring Boot, building production systems like inventory tools, shareholder-management apps, and a fintech microservices powered by Spring Boot, PostgreSQL, and AI(LLM) integration. I enjoy experimenting with emerging technologies & building.
My focus now is building reliable, maintainable systems and simple, accessible experiences for the people who use them.
Here are a few technologies I've been working with recently:
- Java
- Spring Framework/Spring Boot
- HTMX
- Thymeleaf
- Vue.js
- JavaScript (ES6+)
- React.js
- Kafka
