    Hey! I am Johnny B. 🙏 (Actually, my Romanian friends call me Ionică, which in English is basically: Johnny). ...and I 💖 emojis! I started coding around 2010, starting with simple static websites, WordPress applications, and then tried Node.js for the first name around 2012. Since then, I have been working with Node.js. I like it a lot. Currently, I do the best in: ★ Node.js 🚀 ​ ​ ☆ Command line tools ​ ​ ☆ Express.js ​ ​ ☆ Passport ​ ​ ☆ Raw/minimal code, without frameworks (e.g. simple HTTP server) ​ ​ ☆ Using npm ​ ​ ☆ Creating npm packages for Node.js (and for the front-end as well) ​ ​ ☆ Scraping the web ​ ​ ☆ Automation of repetitive tasks ​ ​ ☆ Image processing ★ JavaScript ✨ ​ ​ ☆ Creating and importing libraries ​ ​ ☆ jQuery (creating plugins, using them etc) ​ ​ ☆ Scraping ​ ​ ☆ Automation of repetitive tasks ​ ​ ☆ Publishing npm packages ​ ​ ☆ SVG (SVG.js, d3.js) ★ HTML & CSS 🎨 ​ ​ ☆ Fixing CSS quick issues ​ ​ ☆ Implementing mockups ​ ​ ☆ Making the page responsive ​ ​ ☆ SEO tips & tricks ★ Command line 💻 ​ ​ ☆ Shortcut tips ​ ​ ☆ Creating command line tools ​ ​ ☆ Using VIM & Tmux ★ Code Review 👀 ​ ​ ☆ I do code review offline, for Node.js, JavaScript, eventually CSS. ​ ​ ☆ Can be done in a live session as well. ​ ​ ☆ Security checks ​ ​ ☆ I point things that can be done in a better way ★ Using Git & GitHub/GitLab/BitBucket etc. 😸 ​ ​ ☆ Introduction to how Git works ​ ​ ☆ Using Git hosting services (e.g. GitHub, GitLab, BitBucket etc) ​ ​ ☆ Top Git commands ​ ​ ☆ Shortcuts If I can help, I will definitely do it, as long your app is not promoting things that tend to be potentially immoral. For example, I'm happy to help you build an e-shop, but I will probably not build an e-shop designed specifically for selling wine since I am against the use of alcohol for drinking. ♦ 🚀 Node.js: 9 years of experience, ~700 packages published on NPM ♦ 💛 JavaScript: 9 years of experience, lots of libraries you can download freely (https://goo.gl/ewoQsK) ♦ 🗣 Fluent in speaking English & Romanian, and comfortable in Spanish & Portuguese ♦ 😸 GitHub Enthusiast (follow me: https://github.com/IonicaBizau) ♦ 😻 Git & GitHub power user ♦ 🍀 Comfortable with MongoDB (especially, the native driver for Node.js) ♦ ❇️ I will not charge you if I can't fix your issue. Why you can trust me: ★ I am a vegetarian. I have never eaten meat. 🍍🥑🥗 ★ I have never drunk wine, beer, etc. Water is the best. 💧 ★ I work for 6 days, and I rest on the 7th day. That's why I am *not* available on Saturdays (specifically between Friday's sunset and Saturday's sunset, my location at the time—you can my timezone a little bit below). 🙏 ★ I sleep between 9:18 PM and 4:42 AM. Depending on your timezone I can wake up earlier if you book a session with me. 💤 ★ I am a musician (pianist and organist). 🎹 ★ I use VIM on macOS and Linux. 🐧🍏

    You can understand it! Whether you're catching up in a coding bootcamp, or nailing a bug — reach me in the chat and we'll figure it out. I know you can, because I see it everyday! I enjoy explaining basics patiently, or move to advanced topics in my expertise anytime. Got a project idea? I can help you code it during a session or multiple sessions! If you feel overwhelmed about any of these — Javascript, CSS, React, Node, Firebase, web technologies in general — or actually just want someone to be around while you are figuring them out and point you in the right direction, just let me know. *BUILD & LEARN — one-on-one pair-coding learning experience with a mentor* Web development is my life, since 2002. For over decade I'm excited to work on the full stack of web sites and applications. With more focus on Front-end and Javascript full stack in recent years. **Practice Javascript** Javascript is probably the most versatile programming language that anyone can start even without installing any specialized software, as the developer tools are built into every browser nowadays. Your browser is a great playground to learn and understand Javascript, HTML and CSS, while also possibly making your experience with the web better. Install Node.js and enable the power of using the same language to access files on your computer and automate your workflow. Node comes with NPM - access to a repository of plethora of Javascript utilities for any task. **Practice HTML & CSS** CSS can be hard sometimes, but it's well defined with great tools to understand it built into the browser. Skills of building UI with HTML & CSS can now be reused not only for websites and web apps, but also mobile and desktop apps. And also your TV, your fridge and your nearby ATM. **Practice React** React provides building blocks to create components, where every component has UI defined with HTML & CSS, with Javascript logic attached to it. Scaling UI for a web app, mobile or desktop app becomes a no-brainer. Practice building on the web platform with me, I'll watch you 👀 and make your learning faster. **Let me hold your hand** (virtually) I know what it's like - to know how to do it, but still feel burnt out. Too easy to fall into an infinite loop of procrastination. Just schedule a session and let me be your focus buddy. I've seen work done in no time after a wait too long. ---- **How to call**: let me know in the chat what you need help or tutoring with. **Before the call**: message me, I may be available immediately, but most likely not—it's generally better to schedule a session, ask me for my availability (after telling me which technologies you need help with). **During the call**: In the codementor session room press "set up zoom", it will launch Zoom where you can share your screen. **If you messaged me and I didn't answer**: Don't be discouraged! There's a high chance I missed your message — feel free to message me again! Sorry, sorry, sorry! But do give a little bit of intro, so it's easier for me to answer whether I can help or not. ---- I only provide help during online sessions where you can share your screen and discuss the issues. ---- My focus: ● **HTML, CSS ● Javascript**, ES6 ● **⚛ React**, JSX, React-Router, Redux, Material-UI ● **Firebase for Web**: Database, Auth, Storage, Hosting, Functions ● jQuery, Backbone, Marionette ● AJAX, Axios, fetch ● async ● Git, Github ● npm, yarn ● Chrome DevTools ● **CSS Frameworks**, Bootstrap, Bulma, Foundation, Semantic-UI, SASS ● Handlebars ● **NodeJS**, ExpressJS, MongoDB ● Webpack, Browserify, Gulp, Bower, Require.js ● Jekyll ● Feel free to message me in the chat anytime — just tell me which topics you need help with — and we'll go from there. ---------------✁------------------------- If you are beginning your journey into web-development and need a longer session to go through the basics of technologies and tools listed below, then I am happy to offer my encouragement with about 20% off my usual rate. * Only applies to **longer sessions** of 1 hour and more. * Only applies to **practice sessions**, where you need help with fundamentals of the technologies listed below. Welcome to discuss or learn these technologies with me. * **Does not apply to commercial** work. The discount doesn't always get applied automatically, so feel free to ask and remind me about it after a session. To get the discount: - **Let me know** that you are a beginner, need a longer session and that a discount would help - **Be nice**, positive and respectful Please only contact me if you actually need help understanding the following technologies, and not just have someone complete your student homework on your behalf! I'm happy to offer a lower rate to guide you through the basics of these technologies: - HTML, CSS, Javascript: building web-pages and understanding all the concepts to make them work beautifully and efficiently - Javascript basics, intermediate and advanced - Javascript libraries and frameworks: jQuery, Backbone, React - Firebase for Web: Database, Auth, Storage, Hosting, Functions - Backend Javascript with Node.js and Express.js - CSS Frameworks: Bootstrap, Bulma - CSS Tooling: SASS, Stylus - Web-dev tools basics: npm, browserify, webpack - Web-dev concepts, such as AJAX - Command line basics and Git - Basics of hosting your static website for free - Using template engines such as Handlebars - Creating website with Jekyll and host on Github - Basics of automated Javascript testing ---------------✃------------------------- Over the years, I have: - Developed hundreds of HTML/CSS/JS Mockups (since 2002) - Wrote several large Backbone.js/Marionette.js javascript applications, for web and mobile (since 2010) - Developed Node.js/MongoDB applications - Developed dozens of CakePHP/MySQL applications (2006-2010) - Installed dozens of Wordpress websites - Worked with large data sets and developed social network-like websites - Developed projects with Laravel, Zend Framework - Developed several popular extensions for Textpattern CMS (2006) - Got experience with video and audio production, screen recording I am keen on advanced web-development tools for front-end and back-end development. Git, Chrome DevTools NPM, Browserify, Grunt, Gulp, Bower, Require.js I feel comfortable working on both small and large websites. Jekyll, Bootstrap jQuery, AJAX Preprocessors: SASS, Stylus, CoffeeScript Done a lot of projects in PHP earlier, but switched to more javascript work in recent years. I am a mac guy, and I manage Debian virtual servers for private projects. $$ Money-back guaranteed – just let me know if you're not happy and your money stay with you. Feeling unproductive? Schedule a session for some quality focus time.

Using GitHub in practical applications not only boosts your learning but also builds your portfolio, which is crucial for career advancement.
  • Stay updated: Since GitHub is continually evolving, staying informed about the latest developments and advanced features is essential. Follow relevant blogs, subscribe to newsletters, and participate in workshops to keep your skills up-to-date and relevant.

The time it takes to learn GitHub depends greatly on several factors, including your prior experience, the complexity of the language or tech stack, and how much time you dedicate to learning. Here’s a general framework to help you set realistic expectations:

  • Beginner level: If you are starting from scratch, getting comfortable with the basics of GitHub typically takes about 3 to 6 months. During this period, you'll learn the fundamental concepts and begin applying them in simple projects.
  • Intermediate level: Advancing to an intermediate level can take an additional 6 to 12 months. At this stage, you should be working on more complex projects and deepening your understanding of GitHub’s more advanced features and best practices.
  • Advanced level: Achieving proficiency or an advanced level of skill in GitHub generally requires at least 2 years of consistent practice and learning. This includes mastering sophisticated aspects of GitHub, contributing to major projects, and possibly specializing in specific areas within GitHub.
  • Continuous learning: Technology evolves rapidly, and ongoing learning is essential to maintain and improve your skills in GitHub. Engaging with new developments, tools, and methodologies in GitHub is a continuous process throughout your career.

Setting personal learning goals and maintaining a regular learning schedule are crucial. Consider leveraging resources like Codementor to access personalized mentorship and expert guidance, which can accelerate your learning process and help you tackle specific challenges more efficiently.

The cost of finding a GitHub tutor on Codementor depends on several factors, including the tutor's experience level, the complexity of the topic, and the length of the mentoring session. Here is a breakdown to help you understand the pricing structure:

  • Tutor experience: Tutors with extensive experience or high demand skills in GitHub typically charge higher rates. Conversely, emerging professionals might offer more affordable pricing.
  • Pro plans: Codementor also offers subscription plans that provide full access to all mentors and include features like automated mentor matching, which can be a cost-effective option for regular, ongoing support.
  • Project-based pricing: If you have a specific project, mentors may offer a flat rate for the complete task instead of an hourly charge. This range can vary widely depending on the project's scope and complexity.

To find the best rate, browse through our GitHub tutors’ profiles on Codementor, where you can view their rates and read reviews from other learners. This will help you choose a tutor who fits your budget and learning needs.

Learning GitHub with a dedicated tutor from Codementor offers several significant benefits that can accelerate your understanding and proficiency:

  • Personalized learning: A dedicated tutor adapts the learning experience to your specific needs, skills, and goals. This personalization ensures that you are not just learning GitHub, but exceling in a way that directly aligns with your objectives.
  • Immediate feedback and assistance: Unlike self-paced online courses, a dedicated tutor provides instant feedback on your code, concepts, and practices. This immediate response helps eliminate misunderstandings and sharpens your skills in real-time, making the learning process more efficient.
  • Motivation and accountability: Regular sessions with a tutor keep you motivated and accountable. Learning GitHub can be challenging, and having a dedicated mentor ensures you stay on track and continue making progress towards your learning goals.
  • Access to expert insights: Dedicated tutors often bring years of experience and industry knowledge. They can provide insights into best practices, current trends, and professional advice that are invaluable for both learning and career development.
  • Career guidance: Tutors can also offer guidance on how to apply GitHub in professional settings, assist in building a relevant portfolio, and advise on career opportunities, which is particularly beneficial if you plan to transition into a new role or industry.

By leveraging these benefits, you can significantly improve your competency in GitHub in a structured, supportive, and effective environment.

Personalized GitHub mentoring through Codementor offers a unique and effective learning approach compared to traditional classroom learning, particularly in these key aspects:

  • Customized content: Personalized mentoring adapts the learning material and pace specifically to your needs and skill level. This means the sessions can focus on areas where you need the most help or interest, unlike classroom settings which follow a fixed curriculum for all students.
  • One-on-one attention: With personalized mentoring, you receive the undivided attention of the tutor. This allows for immediate feedback and detailed explanations, ensuring that no questions are left unanswered, and concepts are fully understood.
  • Flexible scheduling: Personalized mentoring is arranged around your schedule, providing the flexibility to learn at times that are most convenient for you. This is often not possible in traditional classroom settings, which operate on a fixed schedule.
  • Pace of learning: In personalized mentoring, the pace can be adjusted according to how quickly or slowly you grasp new concepts. This custom pacing can significantly enhance the learning experience, as opposed to a classroom environment where the pace is set and may not align with every student’s learning speed.
  • Practical, hands-on learning: Mentors can provide more practical, hands-on learning experiences tailored to real-world applications. This direct application of skills is often more limited in classroom settings due to the general nature of the curriculum and the number of students involved.

Personalized mentoring thus provides a more tailored, flexible, and intensive learning experience, making it ideal for those who seek a focused and practical approach to mastering GitHub.
