Tristan Chin
B. Eng. Software Engineering & Web Developer
đź‘‹ Hello there!
I'm a Web developer with a bachelor's degree in Software Engineering, located in Montreal, Quebec. Since I was introduced to programming, I've always had a passion for Web development and technologies, especially in the JavaScript (TypeScript) ecosystem. I like to try out the latest popular libraries and frameworks to make great software!
Other than development, a huge Star Wars fan, I am! ! I've seen all the movies and series... a couple of times! My favorite Jedi has to be Ahsoka Tano, for her unique fighting style and wisdom. I also mostly listen to EDM music. While I listen to many artists in the genre, my favorite is Illenium, with his great vocal chops!
Finally, I have a sweet spot for 4-legged fluffy friends, especially dogs. I'm the kind of person to hang out with the dog at a party. I also have a Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier named Kingsley!
Skills
Here's a list of my technical skills. As you can see, while I mostly specialize in Web technologies, I've learned a thing or two in other fields while I was in school and in past job experiences.
I'm aware rating skills on a scale of 1 to 5 is subjective and skills are not really measurable that way, but since this isn't a CV and long explanations don't make pretty layouts like this one, here's the general idea of what each rating means (how I subjectively chose them!):
- 1 - I've tried it or haven't used it in at least 3 years.
- 2 - I've used it a little or haven't used it in at least a year.
- 3 - I've got a good grasp of it and can make something decent with it.
- 4 - I've used it multiple times and can get a project done with it by myself.
- 5 - I use this almost every day! They're usually my technologies of choice when creating my own projects.

Projects
Here's a few of the projects I've worked on. You can see the full list on my Github profile, but these are the ones I am most proud of. Even if some of these were eventually left unfinished (like most my repos, oops!), I still learned a lot from them!

Here's an overview of my past experiences as a developer. Before starting to work in this field, while I was just starting as a student, I worked two and a half years as a cashier at Canada's renowned coffee shop, Tim Horton's.
