Elchin Orujov

a.k.a. ELOR and Elorucov

Software developer from Azerbaijan. 🇦🇿
28 y. o. with 10+ years of software development experience.

I develop software as fast, responsive and lightweight as possible.

👨🏻‍💻 What I am developing

🛠️ Skills

.NET

• C# — primary programming language;
• ADO.NET, Entity Framework Core — for working with DB;
• ASP.NET Core (Web API and MVC) as backend for web-services;
• LINQ;
• MVVM pattern in GUI apps;
• Popular libraries I have experience: Newtonsoft.Json, Serilog, Community Toolkit, xUnit…

Web

• HTML5 & CSS3 & Vanilla JS — for making landing pages, blogs, demos, etc;
• nginx is the main web server I always use;
• PHP — for “lightweight” web services, when ASP.NET is too “heavy”;
• React — have a little experience.

Databases

• MySQL — primary.
• Also known PostgreSQL, SQL Server and SQLite — but less.

Other IT-related skills

• Git and CI/CD — automatically build an app for different platforms after a push;
• IT helpdesk — install and setup various Windows and Linux-based OS and software, solving software problems;
• 1C (programming) — thanks to my current job;
• Making simple SVG icons and logos (like those you can see on this page).

👨🏻 A little more about me

Languages: Azerbaijani (native), Russian (excellent), English (B1).

I quickly learn and become proficient in technologies, programming languages, and frameworks I haven't worked with before.

As I mentioned above, I strive to write fast, responsive, and lightweight software: in particular, I try to minimize the use of third-party libraries whenever possible.

I rarely use artificial intelligence, and I have never used it when developing my projects.
