Available to hire
I’m James Holby, a software developer and front-end architect with over 12 years of professional experience. I’ve worked on software projects in various domains for different companies, and I believe close collaboration with clients or users is essential to deliver what they truly need. I write clean code that’s easy to understand and maintain, and I value regular exchanges with other developers to keep quality high.
In the future, I would like to further expand my knowledge in the areas of front-end server-side rendering (SSR), static site generation (SSG), and module federation.
