Project History
Ifood Restaurant
https://parceiros.ifood.com.br/restauranteI built the new version of the Ifood restaurant landing page and sign-in form based on the designed layout. The technologies used in this project were HTML, CSS, Sass, BEM, React, Redux, Redux Thunk, Jest, and Recompose.
Hybris Front-end Leroy Merlin
I implemented the web system's front end, which was made with JavaScript, jQuery, Jade, Nunjucks, Gulp, CSS, and HTML, and used for the assisted sale inside the stores of Leroy Merlin Brazil. The main challenges of this project were to maintain a consistent interface that could solve all the needs of the supporters who would use it and implement the modules needed to add discounts and freight sums.
Leroy Merlin Suppliers Portal
This is a single-page application made with React and Redux for Leroy Merlin suppliers and employees to assist with all the supplier's requirements. The main challenges of this project were keeping a consistent and reliable structure while the platform started to grow, managing a whole bunch of data in the front end, adding a CI, patterns to commits, pull requests, and code reviews.
Ifood Fleet Web
I worked on the Ifood Fleet Web, an SPA platform that manages delivery orders, treats occurrences, and has a manager's vision of the situation of the delivery areas and workers. I used agile, UX, and development best practices. The technical stack used was React, Redux, Redux Saga, Flow, Recompose, Jest, and Cypress.
Leroy Merlin Garden
http://styleguide.leroymerlin.com.br/I helped maintain the open-source style guide called Garden, which supported the front-end team working on different front ends for the company. I added components using JavaScript, CSS, and Atomic Design to be used inside the Leroy Merlin portal and other internal applications.
Ifood Bag
I worked on the Ifood Bag, a components repository. I created reusable components for use in different applications developed by the back office team. The components were created using React, Flow, Recompose, and Jest and documented using Docz.
Dança.com
https://www.danca.com/I was hired to develop the front end of a website called Danca.com, a platform focused on helping dance schools and teachers manage their classes, students, and billing periods. During this project, I used JavaScript, HTML, CSS, Sass, ERB and Rails, jQuery, and JS modules.
Escola Digital
An online platform focused on assisting in distance learning. The main challenges encountered in the development of this project were migrating the interface to a new version and restructuring the front-end codebase, which was unreliable, given my limited experience. I worked with HTML, CSS, Sass, JavaScript, jQuery, Haml, Erb, Jade, and Ruby on Rails.
Personal Website
This personal website is made with HTML, CSS, Sass, JavaScript, and Webpack. It was written to practice some technologies and develop an easy, scalable landing page deployment using tools like Webpack, Minify, asset converters, and linters.
SorocabaCSS
SorocabaCSS is a front-end local community in inner São Paulo, Brazil. We organized many meetups to engage with the local community and share general knowledge about CSS and the front end with students and local developers.
Translator at Entrylvl
https://github.com/entrylvlEntrylvl is an open source blog I have alongside five friends.
We create and translate (from English to Brazilian Portuguese) entry-level content to programming newcomers and inexperienced people.
Our goal is to make knowledge more accessible to Brazilian people who don't speak English.
