I'm Joel – a Brazilian software engineer focused on web development. You can find me online at:

• X: x.com/holyshtjoe
• Mastodon: functional.cafe/@joel
• LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/joeljuca
• Website: joeljuca.com

Today I mostly build web apps – both front end and back end, as well as full-stack apps, using:

• Elixir and Phoenix for real-time systems
• Ruby and Rails for traditional web apps
• React and TypeScript for dynamic front-end apps
• PostgreSQL and SQLite for relational data

In the past, I've built things with:

• Flash and ActionScript
• PHP with MySQL, WordPress, CodeIgniter, CakePHP, and Drupal
• JavaScript with Prototype, CoffeeScript, and AngularJS
• Node.js with Express, Sails.js, Koa, Fastify, and NestJS

During my career, I've been very active in the Open Source – especially in communities. Currently, I am active in:

• Elug CE (founder & CM)
• GURU-CE (CM)

And I've also contributed in multiple roles to other communities like HoraExtraJP, GrudePB, and Drupal CE.
