Hello, my name is Dmitry Gorobets, I’m from Yekaterinburg, Russia, and I’m Web developer. I have more than 3 years of experience of developing and managing web applications using Django and React.
What do you like most about being a developer?
I’m really passionate about creating new applications and websites which will be useful for people. I like programming so much that I do it in my free time.
How do you keep up with modern technologies?
I am keen on reading articles about the novelties and the progress of modern technologies. Sometimes I attend and watch conferences on youtube. My team has tech talks on a weekly basis, which I learn a lot from. Twitter is another source of up-to-date materials for me.
What are the most common challenges you face on projects? How do you solve tackle them?
I believe the most common challenge on existing projects is lack of automated tests, which can lead to various errors and vulnerabilities in the system. The solution in such cases is to write automated tests and keep doing it when implementing new features.
How do you make sure your code is clean and beautiful?
I always write tests, follow official style guides and use code formatters and linters. I also have mutual code reviews with my team.
What are your plans for the future? (what do you dream about/globally or particularly in terms of your profession or programming in common)
Well, In the future I see myself as a team leader or a technical director in a big international IT company. I would also be interested to participate in fintech and cryptocurrency projects.
