About Me
Who I am
Building real-world products that ship, scale, and actually solve problems.
I'm Moti Gelana, a full-stack software developer based in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. I graduated with a 3.82 CGPA in Computer Science from Hope Enterprise University College. I specialize in building real-world web applications - from QR-based restaurant systems and e-commerce platforms to professional service marketplaces. I work across the full stack with Next.js, Vue.js, Nuxt.js, Laravel, TypeScript, and more.

How I Work
My development process
A battle-tested, four-step approach that turns ideas into reliable, production-ready products - every single time.
01Step
Map the Logic
Plan before a single line.
I break the problem down - data models, user flows, and edge cases - so the architecture is rock-solid before any code is written.
02Step
Build Clean
Readable, modular, maintainable.
I write well-structured code with reusable components and clear conventions, keeping the codebase easy to scale and a joy to extend.
03Step
Tune & Test
Fast, polished, bug-free.
I profile performance, squash bugs, and refine every interaction until the experience feels effortless across all devices.
04Step
Deploy Flawlessly
Ship with confidence.
I handle deployment, monitoring, and handover end-to-end, so your product goes live reliably and is ready for real users from day one.
