Hello I'm Cristhian or Thian, a full stack JavaScript web developer based in Guayaquil, Ecuador, who is a entrepreneur and code entusiasm, crazy about building exceptional stuff on the internet. I develop different kind of web, mobile and desktop apps from the frontend to the backend and the database layer.

After graduating I founded Ecudevs where I help people to achieve their dreams trough the code. I have experience as an entrepreneur delivering mobile, web apps, and integration software processes for personal clients. I have worked in the e-commerce industry with technologies such as WordPress, WooCommerce, and Flutter, also developing fintech with ReactJs and PHP Laravel.
Currently working at Parallel Public Works I've earned experience with React/Gatsby and PHP/Drupal helping nonprofit organizations to have their own spaces on the internet.
Here are a few technologies I've been working with recently:
