01.About Me

Hello, I'm Jarue "Rue" Johnson, born and raised in Florida, and I've been in love with technology since I was 16. My dad, a engineer himself, was the one who introduced me to the world of tech. Learning from him and many others, I've grown a lot, not just as an engineer, but as a person too.
What really makes me happy is using my tech skills to help others. My love for helping people has been with me since I was a kid. Plus, I'm a big fan of sports and music. What's really cool is that I get to mix these interests with my love for coding, and that's where the magic happens!
The awesome thing about coding is that there are no real limits. You can do so much with it, and the only limits are the ones you put on yourself! In short, I'm not just an engineer, but also someone who loves to solve problems and dream big. I'm excited to keep learning and growing, and to use technology to make a real difference in the world.
Here are a few technologies, languages and tools I have been working with recently:

02.My Approach
My usual approach
Focus on the user and all else will follow.
Plan & Strategy
Discuss things like your business model, your target audience, and your goals will help me understand what you want to achieve with your product. Then I can plan something like architecture, user experience, and technical implementation.
Design & Develop
Once agreed on the plan, I cue my lofi playlist and start designing the user experience then deep dive into coding. I keep you in the loop by sharing the progress and asking for feedback.
Test & Review
I will test the application on different devices and browsers to make sure it is working correctly. I will also review the product with you to make sure it meets your expectations.
Launch & Support
Once everything is ready, I come to the most exciting part, launching the product. By following the best practices, I will make sure your application is secure and performant. Continuous support is also provided to make sure your product is always up to date.
