During my first internship, I was introduced to the fundamentals of backend web development using PHP frameworks such as CodeIgniter and Laravel. I spent time understanding the core concepts of the MVC (Model-View-Controller) architecture and how it supports clean, maintainable code structures.

I also learned to work with Blade templates in Laravel to build dynamic, reusable UI components, and explored how routing, controllers, and models interact within both frameworks. Additionally, I gained a solid foundation in database design and management using MySQL, where I practiced writing queries, creating tables, and connecting databases with backend logic.

On the front-end side, I was introduced to CSS and Bootstrap, learning how to build responsive layouts and style web pages effectively. This internship gave me a strong technical base in fullstack development and deepened my interest in building functional and well-structured web applications.

During my second internship, I had the opportunity to work as a fullstack web developer, where I gained valuable hands-on experience with CodeIgniter and Laravel. I was involved in the complete development cycle of several internal and client-facing applications. On the backend, I worked with MySQL databases, implemented RESTful APIs, and contributed to building robust authentication systems and dynamic CRUD operations. I used Laravel's Eloquent ORM and CodeIgniter's lightweight structure to develop scalable features efficiently.

On the frontend, I handled the integration of responsive user interfaces using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and templating engines like Blade. I collaborated closely with designers and senior developers to translate UI/UX mockups into functional components and enhance user interactivity.

This internship not only improved my technical skills but also taught me how to work in a collaborative development environment, follow version control best practices with Git, and participate in agile workflows. It was a foundational experience that strengthened my interest in building complete, user-centric web applications from scratch.

In my first professional experience as a frontend developer, I worked on building modern, responsive web applications using React, Next.js, and Tailwind CSS. This role allowed me to deepen my understanding of component-based architecture, client-side routing, and server-side rendering with Next.js.

I was responsible for translating UI/UX designs into clean and efficient code, creating reusable components, and ensuring cross-browser compatibility and responsive design. Using Tailwind CSS, I streamlined the styling process and maintained consistency across the application while speeding up development.

In addition to my frontend responsibilities, I also took the initiative to learn backend development using Go (Golang). I explored how to build RESTful APIs, handle routing, and connect to databases using Go's standard libraries and popular frameworks. This fullstack exposure helped me better understand how frontend and backend systems interact, and strengthened my ability to build end-to-end web applications.

I also collaborated closely with backend developers and designers, which helped me strengthen my skills in integrating APIs, managing state effectively with React hooks and context, and handling asynchronous data fetching. This experience not only improved my technical skills but also taught me the importance of writing maintainable, scalable code and delivering smooth user experiences.
