Toni Angelchovski

Hello, community! 👋
I’m Toni Angelchovski from Bulgaria – a web designer, system administrator, and automotive technology expert. 🚗💻 I love diving into technological challenges and am also the creator of DTGARAGE.EU – a platform where people with diverse interests and skills can share ideas and learn together. 🌟
⚙️ Currently, I’m focusing on:
AI technologies and their applications in art and design. 🤖🎨
Developing innovative solutions for automation.
Sharing knowledge and inspiring others to reach new heights.
💡 Fun fact about me: I believe that even the most complex technology should feel like art – not just functional, but beautiful too!
I’m thrilled to be part of this inspiring community. Let’s learn, grow, and create together! 🌍🔥

Hi Andrew! 👋
You’re absolutely right – AI art still has room to grow, especially when it comes to perfecting details like human anatomy. But isn’t that part of the beauty of innovation? It’s like watching an artist refine their craft over time. 🎨✨

For me, it’s fascinating to see how AI pushes the boundaries of creativity, even with its quirks. Those imperfections often remind us that behind the tech is a human guiding it with their imagination.

What’s your take? Do you think AI could eventually master those nuances, or should its unique "imperfections" be part of its charm? 🤔🔥

I think that with time, big AI companies will figure out how to perfect AI. It will probably never be perfect, but it will be close. I also enjoy seeing AI improve! 😁

Travis Decker

Hi everyone! My name is Travis, and I’m a developer with 6 years of experience in building applications that solve real-world problems. My focus is on React and JavaScript, but I also have experience working across the full stack.

What I’ve Worked On
I’ve had the opportunity to work on a variety of projects, from creating intuitive front-end user interfaces to building serverless backends. Here’s a quick overview of my technical experience:

Front-End: React.js, Next.js, Tailwind CSS
Back-End: AWS Amplify, GraphQL (AppSync), DynamoDB, Lambda
Other Tools: Python for data processing, Google Maps API for mapping solutions
One of my biggest accomplishments was building a Twilio-based reminder system for a major medical infusion company. This system sent patients multiple appointment reminders and ensured seamless communication using AWS Lambda and Node.js.

Recent Project: Ramp Explorer
Most recently, I’ve been building Ramp Explorer, a platform for anglers to discover and share boat and kayak launch points. It integrates React, AWS Amplify, and Google Maps to create an interactive and user-friendly experience. I’m currently exploring ways to incorporate AI-driven insights to enhance the platform further.

Why I’m Here
I joined dev.to to connect with other developers, share what I’ve learned, and continue growing in my career. I’m passionate about creating solutions that are not only functional but also user-focused. I am in between contracts and I am looking to connect.

S PUNITHARAN

Hi AWS Community! 👋

I’m Punitharan Sivanathan, and I’m excited to be a part of this vibrant and innovative group. Currently, I work as a Lead System Administrator, where I manage and ensure the smooth functioning of critical systems, including payment card systems that comply with PCI DSS standards. This role has given me deep expertise in system reliability, security, and compliance—skills I aim to build upon as I transition into the world of DevOps engineering.

My journey into DevOps is driven by a passion for automation, continuous improvement, and bridging the gap between development and operations. I’m particularly enthusiastic about leveraging AWS tools and services to build scalable, resilient, and automated infrastructure. From managing Linux servers to orchestrating secure payment systems, I’ve developed a foundation that I’m eager to expand into areas like CI/CD pipelines, Infrastructure as Code (IaC), and cloud-native architectures.

A fun fact about me? I thrive on solving complex problems and enjoy brainstorming ways to make systems not just functional but seamless and efficient. Outside of work, I’m constantly exploring new technologies and learning skills that align with the DevOps philosophy.

I’m here to learn, share, and collaborate with all of you. If you’re a DevOps enthusiast, cloud expert, or just someone who loves tech discussions, let’s connect! 🚀

Looking forward to growing together, one deployment at a time!

Angel Orlando Anguiano Peña

Hi everyone! My name is Angel, and I'm from Mexico 🇲🇽. I'm excited to be part of this community! :)

I'm a sophomore Software Engineering student, deeply passionate about web development and UI/UX design.
⚡️ I started building Arduino projects at the age of 13, and that environment sparked my interest in electrical engineering. However, I later discovered my passion for coding and creating modern, efficient solutions. I eventually switched my major to study Computer Science, but a part of my love for electronics stayed with me through my interest in the Internet of Things (IoT) 😅.

🌱 I love nature, and combining software and hardware through IoT has allowed me to work on a project that purifies food to contribute to the safe feeding of ranch animals. 🐮

In my free time, I enjoy playing tennis 🎾 and crocheting tiny plushies 🧸.

Thanks for reading, and happy coding! 👾
