Hello, I'm Nicolás
I’m a full stack web developer from Chile with a passion for building performant and scalable web applications. I started coding my first year of university more than 15 years ago, originally in Java (back in the JSP days), and more recently in Python and JavaScript. These days, I mostly build Django apps.
Lately I've been writing a blog about my web development work called Django Horizons:
My Skill Set
I specialize in developing full-stack web applications with Python and JavaScript, focusing on frameworks like Django and FastAPI. I build responsive frontends using React and modern CSS, and I'm experienced in database optimization with PostgreSQL. I also have a solid foundation in data science, utilizing libraries like Pandas and Matplotlib. I’m proficient with Git, Docker, CI/CD, and cloud platforms like AWS, ensuring seamless development and deployment processes.
Recently, I've been very interested in the integration of lightweight libraries like HTMX and Alpine.js into Django templates, as full-stack alternative to using heavier JavaScript frameworks.
Currently I'm working on:
I'm in the early stages of developing a data science visualization project focused on Chilean politics, using pandas, Matplotlib and Seaborn, along with Wagtail CMS. I will post more information here when the time comes.
I also developed and maintain:
In 2024 I developed 2 full-stack Django projects with HTMX and Alpine.js
Betview // www.betview.net
A free-to-use sports bet tracker, with an inbuilt analytics engine.
Django Horizons // https://django-horizons.fly.dev/
A Wagtail CMS project, in which I document my journey into web development.

I'm always open to discussing new opportunities or collaborations. I'm generally happy to work on anything Python or Django related.
