Hey, I'm Steven Mercatante and I build things for the web.
I'm a full stack software engineer with over 15 years of experience building websites, mobile apps, APIs, CMSs, and ETL pipelines.
I’m working on a note taking app. Nothing to share publicly just yet, but I’ve got a working prototype in Gatsby. I’ll open it up once I dog-food a bit more to iron out the kinks.
Hi, I'm Diogenes. Talented and hardworking professional focused on creating elegant solutions in the shortest time possible. Develop high-level emergent plans and Estimate the required budget stage...
I've been stalling on redesigning my web site for several years now. The first task is to completely rewrite the back end (was in PHP/MySQL, now ASP.NET Core/EF Core/SQL Server).
I'm currently looking at front-end frameworks to develop the administration front-end (I need that before I even think of redesign the public-facing web site). I looked at Blazor last night and it seems to need a little more work (either that or I'm dumb, which is a possibility I'm willing to entertain). Today I'm looking at Vue.js. I've done a little bit of React at work, but that was months ago and I don't remember most, if any of it.
I actually came to DEV right now to look at a few posts about Vue.js and see what people think/do. I tried a Vue.js project in VS 2019 Community Edition (we use VS 2019 Enterprise at work, in case anyone is wondering why VS) and the experience has been underwhelming when it comes to running the project, so I'm kind of open to alternatives.
I might actually post a discussion about this later today.
So yeah, that's the project. And cleaning my place. :)
Working on rebuilding my portfolio! Trying to improve performance and UI and code structure and everything tbh, in the new one I am challenging myself by trying to load it under 2s! So far I am able to load it in 1.6 seconds though I am yet to put some content in it :D. I will post about it here once I am done.

I have to complete some contributions on GitHub that I have pending and plan for next week at work.

Here's a small preview:
Work on it! You'll be able to do it! That color scheme looks amazing!
Thank you so much 🌻🌻
