experience. I did an update a few years ago with HTML5, ES5, CMS on a

JavaScript developer, Freelance
Nov 2017 – Mar 2019
Vienna
This is my most fertile year, regarding web-development. I was limited with my workpermit (as a student you can work only half of the work time) so I decided, in
cooperation with my friend that we'll try to code more, find our own projects and
we did. We built finishing projects for students in final years (we were still the
second year). We had basically three versions of the same project that we just
polished for everyone. I did React.js and vanilla js on a front-end, he built back-ends
(well one) with Java (Spring). I also enrolled myself in BovAcademy which is an elite
online programming academy. If you can afford it (starting from 250 e/monthly up
to 1000 e) it's an awesome experience. Here we needed to code in teams 8 hours a
day 5 days a week, in order to finish the curriculum in time (if you don't they reset
you back). We did many projects, and the probably most ambitious was this:

components. I stayed here for about 8 months before leaving.

Feb 2013 – May 2016
Banjaluka, Vienna
In this time I was building static sites, landing pages with Wordpress. Reason for this
was, i was the computer guy, whatever goes wrong i could fix it, starting from
Operating system to network, LAN connection, hardware, etc. Everybody wanted a
web-site at the time so we had plenty of work (me and my friend). Through work, I
mastered HTML, CSS, Bootstrap, and scratched the surface of JavaScript. This was
the time I realized I wanna be a programmer, so latter I applied for business
informatics studies.
