# Hello, folks! 
**Mahmudul Alam** here! 👋 A **Full-Stack Software Engineer** who's absolutely passionate about building beautiful, performant frontends with **React & Next.js**, diving deep into **Web3**, and crafting solid **System Architecture**.
Hailing from Bangladesh 🇧🇩 and currently based in Dhaka, you'll find me wearing multiple hats: **Independent Contributor (IC)** at **Creative Crowdfunding Protocol (CCP)** and **Backend Lead** at **Mavu** (a minipay app for microworkers). When I'm not coding, I'm probably learning something new or contributing to the Web3 community!
## 🚀 Career Journey
Started from the bottom (literally, with vanilla JS 😅) and here's how it went:
**2019-2021:** Mastering the fundamentals - Vanilla JS, jQuery, DOM manipulation, CSS3, HTML5
**2021-2022:** Fell in love with React (Class → Functional Components), dove deep into Frontend Development
**2022-2024:** Went full-stack mode - Django, Express, and got hooked on Web3 Integration
**2024-2025:** Leveled up with System Architecture, Smart Contracts, and Blockchain
**2025-Present:** Pushing Frontend Architecture boundaries, exploring DevOps, and diving into Cloud Native
## 🔧 Currently Working On
What's keeping me busy these days:
- **Frontend Magic:** Next.js, React, TypeScript, Server Components, and exploring advanced React patterns
- **Backend Stuff:** Express, Django, TypeScript - keeping the APIs happy
- **Web3 Adventures:** Smart Contracts, MetaMask, RainbowKit, Privy, Ethers.js, EVM
- **Infrastructure:** PostgreSQL, Redis, BullMQ, PM2, CI/CD pipelines
## 🌱 Currently Learning
Always learning something new! Currently diving into:
- **Golang** - Expanding backend horizons
- **DevOps & Infrastructure** - Getting my hands dirty with Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, Pulumi, Ansible
- **Container Internals** - Understanding what makes containers tick
- **Infrastructure as Code** - Terraform and Pulumi are my new best friends
- **Cloud Native** - Exploring architecture patterns and scalability strategies
