About Ron Villalon

I have a deep passion for clean code and clean architecture that scales to any team size yet practical and accessible to newcomers. I have deep familiarity with the true essence of Alan Kay\'s vision for object orientation, and the benefits of how a functional paradigm simplifies a developer\'s ability to problem solve. E.W. Dijkstra\'s insights in,\"The Humble Programmer,\" is forever timeless and speaks to the true power of why abstractions and decomposition is the backbone to what makes code clean.I actively have lively discussions with developers, including those with prestigious awards in code maintainability, to continue to refine and simplify the core concepts in what makes clean code \"clean.\"Now, I am on a mission to help development teams unlock the speed and flexibility of their team by leveraging the principles of clean code and code automation.Skillset:Javascript, React, NextJS, Jest (+RTL), Node/Express, Webpack, OrientDB (Graph), WebApp Security, OOP, OOAD, Clean Code, Clean Architecture, Domain Driven Design Data-Context-Interaction (DCI), Semantic HTML, OOCSS, Sass, Git, Restful API, PHP / Symfony / CodeIgniter, MySQLRamdaJS (Functional), GraphQL, Apollo Client/Server, AWS, DigitalOcean, Server Hardening,Docker Containers, Microservice Architecture, Gulp, Mocha/Chai, MVVM, MVP, Event Storming, User Story Mapping, Kafka Event Streaming, PostgreSQL, MongoDB
