Sergiu Mare - front end developer

Welcome to my page, my name is Sergiu Mare and I am a Front-End | Javascript Developer.

I have been working in the web development industry for more than 5 years.

I am a web developer specialized in the front-end.

I specialized in working on large-scale projects with front-end frameworks like Vue.js and React.js.

I feel comfortable working alone on a web solution or to be part of a team of developers.

These are some of the words which I like to hear when starting a new project: coding standards, testing, documentation, scrum agile, ci/cd, version control, design, API, component-based framework, and cms.
