PHP
Advanced

Advanced

The main language I am focusing on. I know a lot and there is a lot yet to learn. A big Shout-out to Alex from Codecourse (former PHPAcademy) for providing such a great content of PHP. I know concepts of object-oriented programming in PHP and I have a few pojects written in it. Nowadays I am trying to improve in Laravel, but more on that later.

PHPMyAdmin
Good

Good

The standard. I have never used anything else, so I am pretty familiar with the interface of PHPMyAdmin. I might try MySQL Workbench in the future, but as for now I'm good with PHPMyAdmin. If I am ever gonna purchase a Mac I will for sure switch to SequelPro.

Composer
Familiar

Familiar

Composer is no stranger to me, it is straight forward, I understand the importnace of it and how and why it is being used.

Laravel
Intermediate

Intermediate

#1 Framework for PHP for me. Still learning though, but I feel that I'm on the right track. Finished 2 Web Applications and it was a breeze. The whole ecosystem around Laravel is just amazing. Laracasts and Codecourse are my two main sources of documentation for learning Laravel.

Homestead
Familiar

Familiar

Same as for Vagrant, I can configure Homestead.yaml, /etc/hosts to make it work with Vagrant and Nginx. I used Homestead for all of my laravel projects or when I followed some tutorial.

Vagrant
Familiar

Familiar

I use Vagrant just to get the Virtual Machine up and running. Vagrant up, Vagrant halt, Vagrant provision. In the future I am planning to switch to Laravel Valet so Vagrant will no longer be needed.I'm familiar with the interface of VirtualBox

Intermediate

JavaScript World

Intermediate

JavaScript
Advanced

Advanced

JavaScript is a must in web developlment no matter if you are front-end or back-end. I admit I am not the best when it comes to JavaScript, but I get the work done. I can read it and with a little help of online tutorials and documentation I am able to solve anything and come up with the right solution.

jQuery
Advanced

Advanced

The standard. Someone says its obsolete, but I think it is not going anywhere anytime soon. jQuery is great, especially if you need to do some simple project and a JS framework might be an overkill. I can read it and write advanced logic in it.

Ajax
Advanced

Advanced

It was such a mess the first time I tried to follow the tutorial for AJAx in vanilla JavaScript. I use jQuery methods for AJAX calls so that I don't have to optimize it for all browsers myself, it is easier too. Nowadays it is a must-have skill for every developer, myself included.

Phantom.js
Beginner

Beginner

I used this library in one project for creating PDF files. The server rendered a view in the background and Phantom.js then took a screenshot of the view and created a PDF file ready to download.

Vue.js
Beginner

Beginner

I watched some online tutorials and it looks promising. I plan to use it on my next big project and I am sure I will master it that way.

Chart.js
Advanced

Advanced

I have used Chart.js on one of my projects and I love it. I really enjoy working with this library and playing around with all types of charts.

PC Skills

Pro

HTML

Pro

I have been using HTML for over a decade. The first time it got introduced to me was when I was on elementary school. After that, practising, learning and using HTML was the every day thing on highschool and the same is true till this day.

Advanced

CSS

Advanced

As a student of Graphic design of digital media, CSS was a huge part of my studies. CSS3 is a huge leap forward and my goal is to know all the tricks CSS3 is capable of.

Advanced

A. Photoshop

Advanced

During my studies on higschool there simply was not a day without A.Photoshop. I learned a lot. We had lessons about every single feature of the program. We were given lessons about how to make a grayscale photo colorful again, how to recover some missing parts of a photo, how to make old photo fresh again, and so on... Nowadays I don't use it as often as I used to, but I am still relevant.

Advanced

A. Flash

Advanced

It had been my favourite vector editor before it died. I used to use A.Flash A LOT during my studies on the high school (Animations, some webpages, a little bit of ActionScript, ...). I even did a big project as a part of leaving-exams. More info about the project in the "Projects" section.

Advanced

C

Advanced

I wrote a lot of stuff in C when I was on the univerzity (STU) and also when I was doing CS50 on Harvard. Memory management, structs, pointers, everything covered and passed the problem sets. One thing that I find cumbersome is string manipulation.

Intermediate

Python

Intermediate

I used Python in Harvard's CS50 for a few problem sets. Later we used the Flask framework for back-end web development. The syntax is super clear, although I prefer ES6 syntax with curly braces and no semicolon.

Beginner

Git

Beginner

I know the basics and the logic behind it. I did't have an opportunity to use it on a daily basis within a team, but still, I don't think it'll be a problem. As everybody says 80% of developers use 20% of git's commands 80% of the time.

Familiar

Jira

Familiar

Not much to say. Familiar with the interface, logging time and so on...

beginner

Terminal

beginner

I love it. For me, it all started back in days when I was using Win7 and watched online tutorials. Terminal was used every single tutorial I followed. It was so hard for me to follow those tutorials since Win7's command line is eeeh... At this moment I know all the basic commands and I can say without a doubt that I am not noob anymore when it comes to terminal. In the future I definitely plan to dive into more advanced stuff.

Intermediate

MySQL

Intermediate

I have been familiar with the term since my highschool days. I am able to create a schema for a relational database, do some basic CRUD, joins and I understand the importance of indexes. Nowadays I use Laravel's Query builder and the ORM, Eloquent, but I can still write querries if needed.

Familiar

Linux

Familiar

In a world without walls and fences - who needs windows and gates?! I decided to fully switch to linux after Microsoft decided to force every single Win7 user to upgrate to Win10. And I am glad I did. The best decision of this decade to be honest. I am familiar with the interface of Linux Mint Cinnamon and I also learned some basic terminal commands.

Advanced

Sublime Text

Advanced

For me it is THE Best editor ever. I admit it has driven me crazy once when I could not figure out why the settings I set did not apply, but later that day I figured it out and found out that Sublime Text uses some kind of hierrarchy for settings. Since then, I cannot say anything bad about the editor.

Intermediate

Bootstrap

Intermediate

I used Bootstrap in two of my projects. It is fairly easy to grasp and since it is the most popular front-end framework, any issue can be solved in no time.

Beginner

UIKit

Beginner

This page uses UIKit. I like the different look of some elements and I also appreciate some components that work on mobile resolutions in UIKit with no problem, yet are bugged in Bootstrap (modal, parallax). However, I had to tweak some classes and find a workaround to get the disared functionality.

Beginner

Cinema 4D

Beginner

The only real thing I have done in Cinema 4D is a spinning cube which I later used on a website built in Adobe Flash. The website was about a photo gallery and everytime an user clicked on a random image, the cube would spin and then render the image.

Familiar

Digital Ocean

Familiar

This is the place my servers sit. Familiar with the interface. With the combination of GitHub and Laravel Forge, everything is smooth.

Advanced

MS Office

Advanced

Who doesn't know how to use MS Office? I would say I am above the average since the average user does not use Styles in Word :D.

Familiar

eCommerce

Familiar

OpenCart / Magento. I developed multiple extensions for OpenCart Admin area and also tweaked the existing ones (ocMod) + I have some experience with Magento Admin area, but this is just not my cup of tea

Intermediate

Google Tools

Intermediate

I am familiar with some tools developed by Google + installing and tweaking them on a webiste (reCaptcha, Google Analytics, Google Maps Javascript API, ...)

Beginner

Adobe Premiere

Beginner

I started getting into video editing in 2019 and I've edited a dozen of videos so far. I can adjust colors, edit and cut videos and all that basic stuff. Working on a 43 inch monitor is a breeze and fun.

Spending Tracker is my very first project written in PHP. The version 3.0 is now out. The version 1.0 was just a simple procedural php based application without authentication, no front-end framework, just vanilla php, vanilla javascript and basic css. Version 2.0 lets you register, log in, organize your spendings into years, months and days. There is also an option to download a pdf of specified year or month. Each record reflects a real-life paycheck, the piece of paper you get after shopping or paying for something. On the piece paper you receive, there is a list of items you bought and paid for. This list of items is all you need to provide. Once you are done filling the forms the application checks for any mistakes and then it inserts a new record into the database. After that you can review your spendings in the overview section. There is a basic overview section that uses accordion / rolletes effect and also a pdf overview section that filters the records based on a given date and / or item name. If an user follows the same naming convention for the same item, the application will group the items together for a better overview, so that the user is able to see how prices had been growing or falling over time. Version 3.0 The page is responsive so as long as you have an internet connection, you are able to use the application with your smartphone.

Macros Tracker a web application for tracking and managing your macros and creating food profiles.

Macros Tracker is a powerful application for every gym rat. First, an user needs to create a food profile. During this proccess, the user enters basic nutrion info like kj/kcal, amount of protein, carbohydrate and fat. There is also an option to enter secondary nutrition info like amount of sugar, dietary fiber and salt. After the basic food profile has been created, the user can switch to 'Add meal' section, where he enters the amount eaten of the particular food. The application then recalculates every nutrition. Once the record is submitted, the user can see the overview of all eaten foods for the given date. Every food is filtered by the day and month. In case the user had some data recorded from the previous year on a same day, both years are displayed, creating a really nice overview, because now he is able to see what he ate a year ago the same day, just for the comparison. This application is still in development. In the future I am planning to add the 'advanced' food section, where users will be able to enter also vitamins content and minerals content of a food + some interesting facts and so on, so stay tuned! :-)

Vocabulary sync is an application that helps you to learn foreign languages faster. You might find yourself in a situation where when you are learning multiple foreign languages you end up having different vocabulary for each language, for example: you might have learned 20 english words connected with the theme "bathroom", but you haven't learned learned the same 20 words in german or spanish. And also the other way, words you know in spanish might be missing from your german or english vocabulary. With this web application you have the option to create your own vocabularies and synchronize the words you learn across all languages.

Summer Note

This is the final project for Harvard's CS50. We had no specific rules to follow for this project, except for one, which was that the project had to be somewhat connected to the "study-university-technology" theme and be beneficial for ourselves. I decided to create a web application for every student that does not have access to Microsoft Word, but wants to make notes during lectures. I implemented Summer Note (a rich text editor) and created interface around it.

Ford Mustang GT/CS in vector Drawing Ford Mustang in vector graphic.

Adobe Flash

Adobe Photoshop

For this project I am using Adobe Flash. The main goal of this project is to draw a car in vector graphic. After I picked the car I started working on the frame (green color lines). For the next few days I had been playing with linear and round gradients. I often had to adjust a selection and transform gradients in order to achieve a more realistic look on some areas of the car. The most significant boost to the realistic look happened after I added light reflections all over the car and shadows on the side mirror. The hardest parts of the car to draw were definitely wheels and front lights. Later I decided to do use this type of project as my final highschool project.

In this project I used Adobe Flash as a main tool, then Adobe Photoshop for optimizing images for print and Adobe InDesign for documentation. Adobe Flash is a graphical editor for creating vector graphic, vector animations and games. I utilize linear and round gradients. The goal of this project is to create an illusion of a real photo. The main benefit of vector graphics is no loss of quallity when resizing. After all cars were done I started designing the booklet. I had a lot of fun doing this project and I think I did a really good job. I\'m kinda sad that nowadays Adobe Flash is not as relevat as it was a few years ago, but hey! it does't change the fact that it is a great editor that can get the task done.

Fun with Photoshop A showcase of some of my PS skills

Adobe Photoshop

GTA SA Effect - Everything is done by me, no filters downloaded. First, I adjusted colors to make the image look more like a cartoon, then I used the Brush tool and reduced colors even more by replacing similar colors with just one color. The third step was to highlight the edges of bodies and muscles and also removing some unnecessary details. I finished it by adding a blurred High Tatras silhouette. I have started working on a few other photos that are going to have the same effect as well, so stay tuned!

Typography Dispersion - I have seen a few tutorial on this, but as I finished, the effect was not so good, so I decided to do it my way. First, I created a selection, did a few tweaks with layers. Then created a text layer and played around with mask and this is the final result.

I do a little bit of spanish every day. On Duolingo I have a streak of over 1400+ days (I have been logging in, translating at least 20 sentences from English to Spanish and vice versa, every single day for over 1400 days in a row without one day missing. If I missed one day without logging in and translating, the counter would jump to 0 and my streak would be gone.)

However, comming from a highschool as a graphic designer and study a field of study that is heavily focused on math and physics, was probably not a good idea...

I also got introduced to the area of sport that is so common we don't even realise that, the psychology of sport. Sport is unique, because it affects people's mood even by just watching it. And it affects masses and masses of people. Nothing else is as powerful. The second part of the training was focused on the technique when performing an excercise, be that bodybuilding, kettlebel or fitness excercises.
