01. About Me

Hello! I'm Sankara, a junior software developer based in Entebbe.


I enjoy building stuff on the web including websites, applications and everything in between. I love learning and teaching others about technology, I’m a lifelong learner that always seeks a fresh challenge for growth in the realm of technology, Informatics and personal development.


Shortly after my high school, i joined Andela Uganda for the Teen Code program where I got really fascinated about how computers work and the ability to solve real world problems with them. Learning and growing in technology has been my thing from then onwards.


Here are a few technologies i have been working with recently.


  • JavaScript (ES6)
  • React
  • Node.js
  • HTML & CSS
  • WordPress
  • Ruby on Rails

Understanding The Git workflow

Git is a distributed version-control system for tracking changes in source code during software development. It is designed for coordinating work among programmers, but it can be used to track changes in any set of files. Its goals include speed, data integrity, and support for distributed, non-linear workflows.

Along your journey of programming irrespective of the programming language you use, you are literally solving problems — “so to speak” usually through the code you write. I hope you know that most problems we encounter can be solved in multiple ways, using totally different approaches of which are all valid and correct.
