      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Olá, Mundo!&lt;/strong&gt; (Hello, World!) 🌍&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I’m &lt;strong&gt;Filipe Lunfuankenda&lt;/strong&gt;, a self-taught programmer, data analyst, and systems enthusiast. I was born in Angola 🇦🇴 and I am currently based in Portugal 🇵🇹, studying IT Management and Programming (TGPSI) at Escola Profissional de Penacova.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;As I join the DEV community, I wanted to take a moment to introduce myself, share my stack, and connect with other amazing developers! &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;"Não basta saber, é preciso transformar conhecimento em impacto real."&lt;/em&gt; &amp;gt; &lt;em&gt;(It is not enough to know; we must transform knowledge into real impact.)&lt;/em&gt; — Filipe Lunfuankenda&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;




&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  💻 What I Do &amp;amp; My Stack
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I am passionate about creating robust software solutions, clean UI/UX interfaces, and tools that solve real-world logistical problems. I love dismantling complexity to understand how things work at their core.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;My current toolkit includes:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Languages &amp;amp; Web:&lt;/strong&gt; React, TypeScript, JavaScript, Python, C#, PHP, HTML5/CSS3.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Desktop Apps &amp;amp; Ecosystems:&lt;/strong&gt; Tauri, Electron, Node.js.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Databases &amp;amp; Infra:&lt;/strong&gt; SQL (MySQL), Linux Servers, Git/GitHub.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Design (UI/UX):&lt;/strong&gt; Microsoft Office, Google Workspace, Adobe Creative Cloud (Premiere Pro, Photoshop), Canva.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;




&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  🚀 Projects I'm Proud Of
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I focus heavily on analytical tools and institutional solutions. Some of my recent work includes:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt; &lt;strong&gt;OrçaTech (Desktop Software):&lt;/strong&gt; A smart budget management and invoicing desktop application built from scratch with React, TypeScript, and encapsulated in Tauri.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; &lt;strong&gt;Pedagogical Feedback System:&lt;/strong&gt; Developed a complete web platform utilizing dynamic QR Codes for a school's restaurant. It crosses real-time customer feedback with the specific student teams working that shift, generating automated analytical dashboards and PDFs for grading.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; &lt;strong&gt;Polynomial Graphing Calculator:&lt;/strong&gt; An analytical tool built with React, Tailwind, and Electron for visualizing extremes, roots, and inverse functions.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;(I recently finished a great internship at **TUMO Coimbra&lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;, working with multimedia editing, robotics, and design sprints, and also had an amazing Erasmus+ mobility experience in Bilbao, Spain!)&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;




&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  🌌 Beyond the Code
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;When I'm not coding, my brain is usually fueled by:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Science &amp;amp; Logic:&lt;/strong&gt; I am deeply fascinated by Physics, Mathematics, Electronics, and Artificial Intelligence. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Linguistics:&lt;/strong&gt; My goal is to become a polyglot. I speak fluent Portuguese and English, but I'm also learning Spanish, French, Italian, German, Japanese, and even classical languages like Biblical Hebrew and Greek for theological and literary analysis.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Culture:&lt;/strong&gt; Huge fan of Japanese anime (especially &lt;em&gt;Naruto&lt;/em&gt;), European football (Hala Madrid!), and playing chess.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
