Portfolio

First of all, you can see me programming a FizzBuzz using TDD (hope you don’t mind the soundtrack):

Didn’t even leave the keyboard!

Current projects

• Freelance Smart Home automation using Amazon Alexa/AWS Lambda, Google Home, Raspberry Pi, Python/Django, Android.

• Web-development. Example: Tem Cena Depois?

  List of movies that have scenes after the credits roll (so you don’t miss it or don’t waste time waiting for nothing).

  Made with Python/Django, BeautifulSoup, InstaPy, ImageMagick, and hosted on DigitalOcean’s cloud.

  

• On-line courses

  Launching two courses on Udemy:

  • Tmux - Productivity on the command-line

    How to boost productivity using tmux and it’s alternatives.

  • What’s new in Python 3

    What changed between every new major version in Python (3.X), with real-world use cases. starting with Python 3.7

  Both courses have an expected launch of early 2019

• Technical reviewer

  I’ve been doing technical reviews for Manning, including books like Scala in Action and The Art of Unit Testing. They even printed my name on the back of the book!

Past projects

In the past I have built several apps, including bots, WordPress blogs, PHP backends, and many more.

The following projects are the ones that had the most interesting solutions or had several thousands of users:

• NerdCatcher: Android app for brazilian’s most famous podcast, NerdCast (and it had a really cool, time-saver feature). The official app took it’s place. Made for Android, using open-source libraries.

• TweetMute: Chrome extension to mute people without unfollowing them. Twitter structure changed heavily and quickly over time, which made development impossible. It’s still available on github. Made with JavaScript/jQuery

• Feedhint: One of my most used projects, you could make highly personalized hackerne.ws RSS feeds. Launched in 2011, it was also used by several companies to keep track if their company’s name was mentioned in a HN comment/post. When Google took Google Reader down in 2013, that was also the end for Feedhint, as RSS usage went to free fall. Feedhint.com is now a premium domain. Made with PHP, Yii, Varnish, Apache Solr, MySQL (Feedhint had great reception from the HN crowd)

• Booksuggest.me: Made with raw PHP and PHPUnit and TDD, you entered a book and it suggested another one that you might like. Nowadays Goodreads is a much better alternative.

Besides that, I’ve worked as an Android developer on Motorola/Google and LG.
