This website is a micro application I threw together for hiring managers to find out more about what I can do in software. I call it an application since you can interact with it as you would any other application. Albeit, I'm not coding any sign up and log in system here but I can assure you that I've created several of those in the past.

I'm always adding features to show case the results of my code and I welcome you to do what any senior dev would do to see if I can do that. However, as a hiring manager, I know you know that front end UX only scratches the surface of what a full stack web application requires. There's so much I do to launch and/or maintain my application projects. Security and spam control are the top two things on my mind when I have my IDE open. Next comes efficiency and speed. When code runs slow, it's hard to test and if code is not written in PSR-2 standards, it gets hard to read.
Now that I got a couple of main SDLC fundamentals out of the way, let's get down to business...

I am experienced in leveraging agile frameworks to provide secure and well formed data between databases and users. I'm focused on Front-end technologies that make my applications look great across any device and in any view, portrait or landscape. My coding mindset is set in providing the best user experience throughout the application whilst blocking malicious data inputs and bot control.

Any web developer would agree that it can take several lines of code to do any one thing in an application. Where there's a way for the public to send data to the web server, without a doubt; there has to be several procedures in place to protect the web and database servers from breaches and spammers.

I believe Protecting the servers starts in the user's browser. As you witnessed when you hit this website, I run checks for things to not only protect my servers but also keep user experience to a tolerable and easy to understand level. If you browse the Internet in Regular Mode (not using Private Windows) and you have JavaScript and Cookies enabled, you're WONDERFUL!
But unfortunately, not every one is as great as you are. It only takes one clown or software robot to ruin it for everyone else. If and when someone thinks he/she can snoop around my source code, I'm prepared for that as well.

Being a web security enthusiast; my first goal is protecting any application I'm tasked with working on. Protecting data and preventing spam are jobs 1 and 2 respectively. Next comes User Experience then Organic Search rankings are close behind.
