About Elian

What's keeping me busy?
Who am I?
Hi, I’m Elian, software engineer @vBridge & Ambassador @Astro. My move for the web was first sparked in 2018 when I decided to build a simple HTML page to display the photo's I took at the time, there was no way back! Since then and there, I was completely in love with building for the web. I transitioned to a Wordpress drag-and-drop to then learning JavaScript and JAMStack development.
Today, I'm mainly focussed on Full-Stack development with a love for front-end and JavaScript.
I started out as a front-end engineering intern in 2020 @vBridge, where I also started getting into JavaScript frameworks. Now, I have a strong focus on design and full-stack development. Building and optimising all sorts of applications for serverless deployments and performance gains. Since 2021 I’ve been also involved in contributing to the Astro framework, writing technical documentation & giving talks and workshops about the framework.
