I'm Bradley @decafdevio. Knowledge is power, so they say.
I'm a passionate coder from Sheffield π¬π§ (well, originally from Manchester but that's another story). I'm trained as a software developer in JavaScript, JSX, Node, Express, and so on πͺπΌ. My current journey as a front-end developer gives me the opportunities to showcase my creative side with UX, REST and product architecture π¨.
When i'm away from the keyboard i have a variety of hobbies which include
πΉ competitive gaming
π± blackball pool
π§ DJing

I'm one of them inconspicuous geeks... I like Harry Potter, PokΓ©mon, 90's music and rom-coms π€.
I wanna be the very best, like no-one ever was, dum dum dum-dum

From school I had a thirst for knowledge in technology. Despite only a brief stint on a computer hardware course at Bury College i would later find mentorship and teaching from a close friend in Tony Higham. Tony taught me the fundamentals in Visual Basic 6 and in an era of Yahoo! chat rooms and MSN Messenger i would program social tools.
In 2004 I did a little web design training using Macromedia (Adobe CC it's called these days π ) learning HTML & CSS. My web design teacher Dave Jones (Pride Media, Middleton) introduced me to performing as a DJ and how to use Cool Edit Pro 2 another Adobe product now called Adobe Audition) and my life as a mashup artist and DJ began. Shortly after I created a community board using vBulletin software dedicated to music artists - LiteRECORDS (2010). Skip a decade or so and I wanted to return to coding so we're up-to-speed.
LiteRECORDS (literecords.com) started out as a pet project and become my classroom and foundation for learning large-scale web development. Since 2010 it's had 4 complete front end design overhauls and over 30 features and services built along the way. The community now hosts over 33,000 members worldwide and doubled it's revenue every year in the first 3 years. It was here I began my understanding of JavaScript, PHP and XML with vBulletin hack.
