Hey y’all! Can we get an #introductions thread going? (Also, search doesn’t work for posts so I couldn’t scroll far back to see if any was created) There’s many new and familiar faces, and it’s cool to see so many great types of designers all together. Share some stuff!

Hi everyone. I‘m Yasin, 36, happily married, 5yo son, end of May a daughter, fullstack dev that enjoys frontend more in the last years. Currently working for a local company and searching for a new job. I used to design around 15 years ago, now it’s my blog and side projects.

Congrats on the new baby, Yasin! It’s good to see a full stack dev that enjoys front end work. Haha, I always seem to run into the opposite. But having multiple disciplines under your belt can never hurt when it comes to trying to communicate more on what needs done (:

I have 3 kiddos myself, and just went through a recent miscarriage. It’s not fun, but I’m glad to hear that things are better this time around.

So sorry to hear that Darian. My son helped me and my wife through all of that, because he is such a happy and open minded kid.

And yes, I was always someone who enjoyed backend and frontend, where frontend is a lot more fun with Next.js, TypeScript and TailwindCSS :)
