Lead engineer with 10+ years development experience & background in delivering training courses
I have been delivering technical training courses for over 7 years on a variety of subjects - I can help by giving full courses, pair programming to help you learn or if you have a specific problem you're trying to solve I'll work with you through it to help you resolve it and understand the solution.

I've been working with Lightning for several years. I've been very active in tracking it's progress through different releases and spending time in the internals to understand it's limitations and how best to use it.
Most recently I've been building apps with Lightning Web Components both on and off the Salesforce platform.
I've been featured on the Salesforce developer blog talking about Lightning and Locker https://developer.salesforce.com/blogs/2019/05/lightning-platform-developer-conversations-locker-security.html and spoken at Dreamforce 2018 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X5pT2RPQi3E

I have worked on many large MV* style JavaScript applications in banks and also startups. I have spoken at conferences about how to write clean and maintainable JavaScript.
I have used many libraries including Lit, Polymer, React, Web Components, jQuery and Angular. I also have in-depth knowledge of D3.js for complex data visualisations.
In addition I have also written and given training courses in many web technologies including HTML,CSS for beginners and AngularJS. Helping students from all kinds of technical backgrounds understand core concepts in JavaScript and map their knowledge of other languages and frameworks into something that makes sense to them and helps them grasp JavaScript.

I have been developing websites using HTML and CSS for many years. I am very familiar with using semantic HTML and many CSS techniques, like OOCSS and how to use tools like Compass/SASS to simplify and make it more manageable. One of my roles in the past was to help produce a firmwide theme for a large global bank that all other web developers would use.
I have also worked on many applications that required complex CSS3 animations and transitions.

I am a regular user of Git during my day to day development. I've used Github and Bitbucket heavily and even had to sit through transition periods of SVN to Git using git-svn.
I also worked at a company which (at the time) had the largest Perforce install, so have a solid understanding of client specs, and managing large scale projects in Perforce.

I've been meeting with Matt for the better part of 6 months now. That's just about as long as I've had the codementor account. He's been an invaluable debugging partner and a great spare set of eyes; he's very knowledgable about his craft and knows how to break seemingly impossible problems down to its core components, then bank on his vast knowledge-base to solve the issue while providing an explanation. Just overall great dude to work with. Highly, highly recommended.
