I developed my GitHub Profile README using Python and a lot of Cool Web APIs to fetch relevant information about me and data I found useful to beautify my profile.

My Cool Webpage
Hugo GitHub Actions
My Cool Webpage
I developed my Cool Webpage using Hugo and Markdown, in the past I tried to use firstly Angular, Ionic and also some other Web APIs to make my personal webpage but looking after dependency conflicts was tedious, so then I tried a more simple approach using HTML and Bootstrap mainly but I felt my webpage was missing something, so I decided to switch to a more minimalistic approach and now I'm using Hugo for static site generation. I think it's also a good idea to say I'm more backend-oriented but I think I can handle frontend pretty good

My Cool LoadBalancer
Go Python Java Docker
My Cool LoadBalancer
I developed a LoadBalancer using Go, Java, Python and PostgreSQL. This project was developed as an Introduction to Distributed Systems class project but I really worked hard on this one so I could practice my skills as a developer. This LoadBalancer is fault tolerant and I also worked on Dockerfiles so there was no need to install the required tools on the machine it was meant to run on. It also includes a video explaining how it works.

My Cool Microservices App
Go Java Docker
My Cool Microservices App
I developed a Microservices App using Java (Spring Boot), I decided to use Spring for this one because it's easy to use and offers libraries for various tasks that are need to be done in a Microservice architecture project. I also made a client CLI app in Go (Using Bubbletea framework for Go) and all this are built into docker images that can be deployed using Docker Compose using Jenkins.

My Cool Resume Generator
Go Github Actions Docker
My Cool Resume Generator
I developed a Templating application that uses Go's native template support and a clean architecture based on Hexagonal Architecture I propose called Eneagonal architecture so the user can extend the application to make it work how he needs it to. Also, for CI/CD I included a bunch of workflows to test my application and also build container images of it.
