About me

Introduction

My name is Joel Färnstrand, and I’m a junior full-stack developer from Sweden with a strong passion for technology.

I have been studying software development in a higher vocational education program for two years, and I will be graduating this summer. During my studies, I have explored various backend and frontend frameworks as well as different programming languages, allowing me to build a solid technical foundation.

Technical Skills

Throughout my education, I have primarily worked with C# for backend development and JavaScript/TypeScript, CSS, and HTML for web development. During my six-month internship, I also gained hands-on experience with PHP.

Recently, my interest in lower-level programming has grown, leading me to explore Python and C/C++. Additionally, I have experience working with databases such as MySQL, SQLite, MongoDB, and Firebase Firestore.

Experience and Projects

I have primarily worked on API development, web applications, mobile applications and smaller personal projects involving Python and C/C++.

While I don’t yet have professional work experience, I have completed several projects independently, which you can find in the Projects section. I thrive in a team environment, valuing different perspectives, but I also perform well when working independently.

Work Style and Values

I prefer working in an agile environment, and even in my personal projects, I apply Kanban to stay organized and efficient. I am particularly interested in Lean Development and would love to work in a professional setting where efficiency and continuous improvement are prioritized.

Personality and Ambitions

I am highly motivated by continuous learning and self-improvement. Programming has no limits, making it an endless source of fun and challenges. In the future, I would love to deepen my knowledge in embedded programming, as well as master Three.js to enhance the quality of my web development projects.

Portfolio Website

2024 November - Ongoing

I created this website as an thesis. The requirements was to prove my knowledge from all courses that I took. I had to prove that I knew about frontend, backend, databases and testing, and there for some things might be taken care of in an unefficient way. My goal is to change this after I graduate, and fill it out with many more projects.

Board Game Application

The app is made with Expo and React Native. It's played in realtime. The connection is setup with sockets and a API. The project is a product for a family member and will hopefully get launched in the future.
