After returning from the Army, I delved into development, starting with market research.
I quickly identified the popular MERN stack (Node, Mongo, Express, React), which was in demand at the time and continues to be so. Since I already possessed some web development skills in the basic web stack (HTML, CSS, JS; Java), mastering MERN technologies was a breeze.
I spent approximately a couple of weeks self-learning through YouTube videos and then an additional 2-3 weeks preparing a demo project with which I planned to land my first contract. By the way, if you want to learn more or see this project in action, you may check it out on the _projects tab.
Overall, the plan worked out just as I had hoped, and within a week, I secured my first contract and later received an invitation to work at Flowster. For more details about my work there, explore positions section in _about-me, and you can also view the application itself on the _projects tab.
In the freelance format, I worked until 2022, completing several projects and changing a few companies. I significantly grew in terms of skills and gained a wealth of experience. For more information, refer to the positions section.
