First and foremost, please check out my web app portfolio at bennettwinters.com and my Github profile at github.com/rittenweb, or find direct links to my work in the "projects" section below! They can tell you so much more than my words can!That said, my unique assets as a coder are represented by my background in writing and my purely self-taught path into the web development world. Writing taught me to prioritize strong architecture/planning, clarity, and above all, user perception. To write quality code, you first need to have clear, quality thought about the problem at hand. To write maintainable, comprehensible code, you need to see it through the brain of another developer. To create a successful product, you need to see it through the emotions of the user. Being a self-taught developer has cultivated my tenacity and love for continual self-improvement in a craft as near-infinite, and as rewarding, as coding is.I love the creativity and problem-solving inherent in coding, especially on the front end, where the feedback is quick and the raw potential to create something increases every year, as browsers get more powerful and APIs more ingenious. I'm no professional designer, but I get excited about beautiful UI and UX. There's something thrilling about creating a product that looks smooth and cohesive on the surface, but solves complex problems behind-the-screen. Maybe the task I love most on the front end is architecting React components and state for maintainability, extensibility, and efficient rendering.
