Roberto Gongora

Hello! My name's Roberto Góngora but I kinda like being called Robert when I'm talking with english-speaking friends (I dunno, the 'o' sounds kinda weird to me in english)

I've been learning about web development since I was like 10 y/o, I remember grabbing my older brother's Club Nintendo magazines and reading about "how to make your own Mario Kart website!" -- they had basic HTML guides on how to create a <table> based website with the character selection screen.

Fast forward a few years (I'm currently 27 y/o) and I consider myself to be a full-stack PHP developer with some sysadmin knowledge (as of right now, being a sysadmin is my full-time job and I'm always learning new tricks).

I've been lurking around this site for a while now, I stumbled upon it while reading about the Ionic framework and PWA's and how this awesome site was the fastest one out there, and I was -amazed- by its speed, and now by its community.

I look forward to know more fellow devs and I'll try to lend a hand whenever I feel like I have enough knowledge about a topic!
