Hi, I'm Angelika 👋

The technical part 🤖: I call myself a full-stack web developer because I like to be involved in many different aspects of creating and maintaining web apps. I write backend code in Elixir 💜. It's my favorite programming language because of its human-friendly syntax, immutability, pattern matching, and performance. In my spare time, I help out with Elixir on Exercism by maintaining the track. I love making websites pretty with CSS 🎨. Sometimes I do weird things with it just to see if I can and I publish it on css-art.angelika.me. I like working on client-side JavaScript code too... ...but I am not a fan of the current trend of making everything a single-page application. Rendering HTML on the backend is still my default choice. I don't care much about which JavaScript framework I use... ...but I do care about web accessibility. Sometimes I write down my thoughts on any of the above topics on my blog 📘. If you want to talk to me about ✨tech stuff✨, you can DM me on Mastodon @angelikatyborska@mas.to or write an email to hello at angelika.me.

The human part 👩: I live in Berlin, Germany 🇩🇪. ...but I was born and raised in Gorzów Wielkopolski, Poland 🇵🇱. I speak English, Polish, and broken German (work in progress!). My pronouns are she/her 🌈. When I'm not coding, I: Play boardgames 🎲. Go to the gym 💪. Watch TV series and movies 📽. Solve logical puzzles and jigsaw puzzles 🧩. Take amateur photographs 📸.
