About me

I am Alex Dimitrov, born about three decades ago in Bulgaria. Both coding and designing are my passion both at work and at home.

I've graduated ELSYS — high school strictly focused on computer science. Along with school, I've been competing in various sports professionally like volleyball and cycling.

Currently working at Fueled as a front end developer.

What I've been doing in my spare time?

I love the redesigning process. Grab this site, or this app, or that interface and rework it. Or play around with new tech, languages, libraries, frameworks, you name it.

One cool new project - 12col.com

Past activities

League of Legends Champion select screen

My goals were: Keep it simple. Make it more useful. Make it so people feel at home. I went and shared it on the subreddit forum for the game. 2 hours later the thread was on the hot page on reddit.com.

It was also coded live on livecoding.tv. You can see the repository on my GitHub. A little metrics — the design has been seen nearly 600,000 times and the live stream was viewed by up to 140 people simultaneously.

Unsplash

Got one of my photos to the ten weekly exclusive images. At this time it has more than 13,000,000 views and over 80,000 downloads. See it on Unsplash.

Drawing

I love drawing. People the most (just like with photography). You can see some of my pieces on my Deviantart page. You can also see some of my art on this very site!

WordPress.org

I was a core contributor for the 4.4 and 4.6 releases. If you happen to notice since 4.4, there's now a "drag boxes here" message on the main dashboard screen.

Other than that I have 2 themes released as well as one plugin that helps you add sources to your articles in the post footer. You can see more on my WordPress.org profile page.

I also got to make these free themes and plugins:
