About.
W elcome! My name is Shang-Lin I am a FullStack developer based in Canada. I have a solid foundation with React.js/Next.js and TypeScript on the frontend side and toggling between Java, C++ and Python on the backend. I enjoy functional and clean solutions software that can be easily maintained! You can find more info on my tech stack to the right of this section! ->
Outside of coding, you can find me tinkering with hardware (keyboards are my current obsession), gaming, buried in a good read or ricing / customizing my environment - for the 900th time. In the winter, you might also catch me travelling to attempt to snowboard off the mountains 🏂 - hopefully the right side up.
I am always looking for opportunities that can merge my love for technology and creativity! If you think my expertise fits what you are looking for, feel free to contact me, I'd love to connect!
