Paul Ionascut, Web Developer

About

Over my career, I have developed a strong foundation in web technologies such as HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Bootstrap, Flexbox, jQuery and PHP. I also have experience in integrating REST API and working with React.js and Node.js, with databases like MongoDB and Firebase. I have worked with CMS platforms including WordPress, HubSpot, and WooCommerce for eCommerce. I am comfortable developing and working with custom themes and plugins, as well as working with visual builders, among the most popular Elementor and Divi. What drives me most is the opportunity to solve problems, learn new technologies, and deliver high-quality user experiences. I am glad to bring this energy to your team and contribute to your projects.
