Dylan Tan.
I bring designs to life.
I'm a Malaysia-based front-end developer who specializes in creating (and sometimes designing) beautiful mobile responsive websites. Currently, I'm a front-end web developer at Dropee focused on striking a balance between functional and aesthetic design.
01. About Me
Hello! My name is Dylan and I enjoy giving life to web designs.
It brings me great satisfaction to make websites work and look pretty. Don’t judge a book by its cover? The cover is just as important as the entire book.
My journey as a web developer has allowed me to experience working at a digital agency, a software house, and a start-up. Along the way, I discovered my passion for front-end development and decided to put it to good use.
Here are some technologies that I’m messing with recently:
- Nuxt.js
- Vue 2/3
- Nunjucks
- Angular
- Nginx
- Node.js
