— Heads up! Given repository consists of content, assets and a year-long story of my personal résumé hosted currently with GitHub Pages at dariakorotkykh.com.

I started it as a study for Binary Studio Academy lesson in GitHub with simple html document and basic styles, based on already developed personal webpage by Volodymyr Kushnir, and continued prettyfying and refactoring with his help, guidance and urging (thanks, Volodya!). In a year he developed his own stylesheet available for use, which I employ at my webpage too (with some custom changes, so there's almost no former CSS code left). And does it feel and look good! (:

I used to regard this page as a training in basic coding, learning and enjoying version control. Later it grew into object of UX-centered discussions, and also I strived to keep the repository clear and maintained as if it was a customer's project. Currently the main purpose of this page is to tell about myself in a readable and aesthetic way. I use it as a résumé accompanied with cover letter when applying for a job, and update it to keep my own curriculum vitae track of things and events. To do so I break down all the info in categories:

  • Contacts

How to get in touch. Telegram is preferable by all means!

  • Intro

Short summary of one's self-presentation

  • Experience & Education

All important professinal events, jobs and projects from the most recent back to those oldest, e-e-e-e-every one — becuse together they form personality and skill portrait, and tell good stories also. I skipped the earliest, childhood ones for now

  • Languages

Hope to add more in that block later

  • Skills

It is always hard to decide whether to list them like items or describe them as actions. For the sake of clarity I took the best from both approaches

  • Character

Hey, it is the best option to imagine that persone who wrote it without actually having to meet (: Anyway, while that block was being born I accidentally learned a lot about how other people perceive me

  • Likes & Dislikes

Second most unexpected block on one's CV, on the other hand great opportunity to discover something in common (hate for facebook, mmmmmm)

  • Wants

The Most Unexpected block, suggested by my abovementioned mentor, I fill with goals I am really interested in. Guess it also kinda falls into personality description. Fun fact, since writing it in December (approximately) two goals have already been removed due to reaching. I am definitely keeping that part of CV as my both self-made motivator and promise

I still strive to learn and practice Front End more, this project being a starting point.
