I am very excited to be sharing that I have been recognized as a Google Developer Expert in Angular. I am very thankful to everyone who was so supportive in the process.
What is GDE?
GDE is a program to recognize individuals who are experts in some technology and use their knowledge to contribute to the community and share it with other developers. You can learn more about the program here.
Read more about the process here.
How did I contribute?
- I started working in Angular (freelance && full-time) around two years back and diving deeper into the working of the framework.
- I started writing blog posts around my knowledge after June 2018 when DJ, the organiser told me the importance of writing what we learn to document it and share it with others.
- By the end of 2018, I wrote around 50 blog posts and the number is more than a hundred now. You can read these here.
- I have created two video courses on Angular, one is available here and the other here.
- I have also created two code labs containing just the right code and issues a developer comes across when creating web components and libraries. Details here.
- I wrote a book on Routing in Angular and published it in May 2019.
- I spoke in 11 conferences and meet-ups together.
