Finally Step One is Complete, Link me to Another! Like I said today (17 April, 2025), I have graduated from the Back-End Web Development Course of alx_africa . 🤩 Share with me those opportunities for growth in the Software Development World.
You can go through my repositories to see how much I have grown (https://github.com/alindafortunate/ALX_Capstone_Project). This is the project that I developed from scratch (https://library-management-api-cusm.onrender.com/) and the links are API endpoints that you can test.

Officially an #ALX Frontend Web Development Graduate! 🎓✨ From knowing absolutely nothing about the world of programming… To confidently calling myself a Frontend Developer 💻. This journey has been challenging, empowering, and life-changing. Through late-night coding sessions, debugging marathons, and powerful peer collaboration, I've grown not only as a developer but as a problem-solver and creative thinker.
Over the last 4 months, I’ve built real-world applications, mastered cutting-edge technologies, and pushed myself outside my comfort zone every single day and gained skills such as:
🧱 HTML5 & CSS3 – Clean, semantic, and accessible page structures
🎨 Tailwind CSS – Fast, modern, mobile-first styling
💻 JavaScript (ES6+) – Dynamic logic and interactivity
⚛️ React.js – Component-based UI architecture
🌐 RESTful APIs – Fetching, displaying, and working with external data
🔁 Zustand – Lightweight state management
🧭 React Router – Smooth, multi-page navigation
📝 Formik & Yup – Form building and input validation
🚀 Deployment & Optimization – Shipping polished, production-ready apps
🤝 Collaboration & Leadership
👥 Peer Programming: Worked seamlessly with teammates to solve complex problems.
🧠 Development Workflow
📁 Git & GitHub for version control
🛠️ Debugging & performance tuning
🤝 Agile & remote collaboration
🗂️ Project structuring & documentation
💻 Capstone project development from start to finish!
🔮 What’s Next? I'm ready to take on real-world challenges, contribute to mission-driven tech, and keep leveling up as a frontend developer. 🚀 Open to new roles, freelance gigs, and collaboration opportunities! Let’s connect and build something meaningful together.

🎓 I Graduated from the ALX Backend Web Development Program! 🎉 After months of relentless learning, sleepless nights, debugging marathons, and unwavering determination, I’m proud to finally share this milestone, I’ve officially completed the ALX Backend Web Development program.
But my best moments? They weren’t just about passing tasks or meeting deadlines. They were the small, quiet victories that followed the struggle. Every time I spent hours stuck on a bug… every deep dive into documentation… every frustrated moment where nothing seemed to work, those were the moments that shaped me. And nothing compares to the joy of finally seeing things click.
The feeling of looking back and realizing how far I’ve come not just technically, but personally. This journey was as much about resilience as it was about code. Now it’s time to take all I’ve learned and bring it to real-world projects. This isn’t the end, it’s the beginning of something greater.
