About Me

A Software Engineer based in Melbourne, Australia

Hi there! My name is Sanath and I love building websites from scratch (including this one!). Growing up, I've always had an interest for computer programming and mathematics. However my passion for web development really started in 2021 when I got a job as a System's Engineer, and was tasked with building a web application for a client using React JS. At the time, I had never even heard of this library - but as I learnt how to use it I quickly fell in love.

Since then, I've gone on to build numerous web apps, from the classic 'To-Do List', to clone builds of popular services from Amazon to ChatGPT. My goal with each build is not just to replicate how the website looks, but to make them responsive and functional as well. Most of my apps are designed to be full-stack, incorporating technologies such as user authentication, databases, and APIs to offer users the full experience.

Here are a few technologies I've been working with recently:

React
Node.js
Typescript

Next.js
Tailwind CSS
Firebase
