πŸ‘‹ Hey, I’m Mike Key (1337hero)

Senior Frontend Developer with 18+ years of experience building high-performance, user-friendly web solutions.
I combine frontend excellence with backend and DevOps chops to move fast, deploy cleanly, and solve real problems.


πŸ”§ My Tech & Infra Stack

  • Frontend / UI / JS: React, Redux, Next.js, TypeScript, JavaScript, HTML5, CSS3, TailwindCSS, Bootstrap
  • Backend / CMS: WordPress (themes / plugins / site builds), PHP, Node.js / Express.js, API development
  • DevOps / Deployment: Linux servers (DigitalOcean droplets), Caddy for reverse proxy / TLS / lightweight routing, Vercel for front-end hosting, S3 (or object storage) for assets / backend static paths, systemd, performance optimization

πŸ’₯ What Sets Me Apart

  • Versatility: able to move between React frontend, WordPress / PHP CMS, server setup, deployment pipelines
  • DevOps experience: not just coding but owning the full stack & deployment stack (servers, TLS, reverse proxy, hosting)
  • Optimization: performance across stack, clean code, good UX, deployment speed & reliability

🌱 Beyond Code

  • Off-grid / sustainability projects / Outdoor adventures
  • Reading old books, lifting heavy things, building tools & environments that feel both rugged & elegant

πŸ“« Let’s Collaborate

If you want someone who can:

  • Build fast, reactive, & secure frontends
  • Modernize or integrate a CMS / backend
  • Handle deployment, server config, infrastructure so you don’t worry about it
