My Story
👋 Hi, I'm Selçuk! As a software developer, I am motivated, ready and open to any programming language and environment. My journey began with training as a computer science specialist at Comhard GmbH in Berlin. I worked as a PHP developer at Bagobag GmbH until 2025 and am now self-employed at Kawai Labs.
👀 I'm interested in coding - I passionately work with technologies like PHP, JavaScript, Laravel, Vue.js, React and Node.js. My expertise includes both backend and frontend development with a focus on product management, HTML5, REST APIs, MVC architecture and object-oriented programming.
🌱 I'm currently learning the fundamentals of life of a coding guy - My motto: "Create a world beyond our mind". I am constantly motivated to develop innovative solutions and evolve ideas. 👯 I'm looking to collaborate on good stuff!
