About me
Who I am
My name is Jan-Willem van Bremen. I'm a 25 year old software engineer, skateboarder and model from Amsterdam! I'm a very social, diligent and precise person who can concentrate for long periods of time. I work well both solo and in development teams!
What I do professionally
Professionally I am a full-stack Software Engineer focussing on web-development. I do this using technologies & techniques like HTML, (S)CSS, Type/JavaScript, Node.js, web frameworks (React, Next.js), Git(hub), Agile Scrum and more! Check out some of my experiences & projects!
What I do for fun
For fun I have been practicing skateboarding for 12 years on an amateur level. During my skateboarding career I have been sponsored by different brands and shops. Next to that I also do some model work for various street wear brands in Amsterdam.
Experiences & Projects
This website is an introduction and community website of the Veldje 14 skatepark in Amsterdam. This project was a learning experience and example of how to use Next.js. This project demonstrates how to use Next.js to render static web pages from a local data source using markdown and JSON. It also loads dynamic content from a remote API using Google Firebase's realtime database for updates on the status of the skatepark.
This project demonstrates how to use the Next.js framework to render multiple pages from an external data source. The data source originates from the nu.nl.
his project was a learning experience and a good example of how to use Next.js. This project demonstrates how to use Next.js to render static web pages from an external data source. The application allows you to search for rockstars and their songs. The application is inspired by the Front-End Tech Case for my new position at Team Rockstars IT.
As you know by now I like to experiment with different API's. This time we are predicting properties of people based on their name! The application has been created for my own enjoyment and to improve my skills regarding quick prototyping, API data fetching and some minor animations.
For the coding assignment for the Kabisa B.V. company I created the Quoty Quotes Network using React and a supplied Quotes Api (Discontinued).
I built this Personal Portfolio Website to introduce myself as a software engineer, demonstrate some of my previous projects and experiences and as practice in vanilla web development (No frameworks).
