Hi, I'm Samuel Matias.
But you can call me Samuca. I'm a Developer based in Brazil. It's a pleasure to have you visiting my portfolio, I hope you like it!
Interests
I write software and write about software.
The combination of my passion for code & design, positions me in places that can combine both, like working with Design systems, for example.
Lately, I've been interested in UI Engineering, Design tokens, Accessibility, tools like Figma, Storybook, Zeroheight, Tech-agnostic tools like Style Dictionary, and DevX tools like, Design system and Server Driven UI.
I like teaching and mentoring people, with things that I know. I usually follow this learning flow: learning - creating - teaching - mentoring.
I am easily impressed by people and the cool stuff that they build. I read a lot of personal and technical blogs. If we've ever interacted, I've visited your website and probably think it's cool!
In my free time, I often watch eSports, including League of Legends championships. I also play League of Legends, along with various MMORPGs like Lineage 2. Additionally, I enjoy watching anime, including titles such as Hunter x Hunter and Bleach, among others. Whenever I get the chance, I listen to music, as it's something I truly enjoy! I also like to apply the knowledge I've acquired in various topics by creating side projects, many of which are open source. Last but not least, I'm deeply interested in discussing topics related to diversity, inclusion, and equity.
