Hey there, my name is
Zack Lim.
I build friendly interfaces.
I am a full-stack software developer with a passion for front end development and high-quality codes.
Currently, I'm focused on building accessible Shopify fronts at IRVINS.
About Me
Hi! My name is Zack Lim and I enjoy creating things that live on the internet. I started playing around with websites back in the late 2000s when Blogspot and Friendster were still a thing - turns out, changing the background image to your favourite character taught me a lot about HTML & CSS!
Fast-forward to today, I've had the privilege to learn programming and pursued software at an amazing school, worked at a startup agency, and a manage the e-commerce sites of an international e-commerce corporation. Today, my focus is building accessible and product-driven websites for my clients.
Here are a few technologies I've been working with recently:
- Javascript (ES6+)
- Shopify + Liquid
- GraphQL
- ReactJS
- VueJS
- NodeJS
