# 👋 Beno!t Polaszek
### 👨💻 Web Development Enthusiast Since the Early 2000s
I wrote my first line of code in PHP back in **2002**, and I've been hooked ever since!
Over the years, I've honed my skills as a **full-stack developer**, specializing in:
- 🖥️ **Backend**: PHP with **Symfony** & **API-Platform**, leveraging the power of **ReactPHP** for asynchronous event-driven applications.
- 🌐 **Frontend**: **VueJS** & **Nuxt**, using the awesome **TailwindCSS** for styling
- ⚡ **Real-Time Updates**: Powered by **Mercure**
- 📱 **Hybrid Apps**: Built with **Capacitor**
- ☁️ **Hosting**: **DigitalOcean** evangelist, **Caddy** for efficient web server / HTTPS management, **Cloudflare** to keep things speedy
- 💾 **Databases & search**: Primarily **MySQL**, mostly **Meilisearch** ♥️
- 🚛 **CI & CD**: Of course **GitHub Actions**, and also **Deployer**
- 🤖 **Generative AI**: Data augmentation with **Claude**, **Deepseek**, **OpenAI** and **Mistral**'s APIs.
