+introduction: >
+  I'm an informations systems engineer (graduated in 2023) and self-taught
+  software developer from Venezuela. I've worked as a software developer 
+  both as an employee and as a freelancer, besides coding for personal projects.
+  I started to teach myself how to code and make websites when I was 13 years
+  old, and I also taught myself to become very proficient in English.
+
+
+  I'm currently working primarily as a full-stack developer, building web apps
+  using Django and Vue.js, custom modules for the Odoo business software
+  platform, REST APIs, and integrations with services like Stripe and Zoho CRM.
+  Check out the [about page](/about/) to learn more about my skills, work
+  experience, and education.
+
+
+  Besides programming for work, I also have a variety of personal and
+  university projects that I've worked on over the years. Check out the
+  [projects page](/projects/) to learn more about them, or go to
+  [my GitHub profile](https://github.com/S8A) to see my code directly.
+
+
+  Feel free to reach out to me for collaboration opportunities, software
+  development projects, or any other professional inquiries.

+    I'm currently working on the development of multiple projects for
+    Bitmotto's business customers: single-page style web apps built with
+    Django, Vue.js and Inertia.js; and custom modules for the Odoo business
+    management software platform. Previously, I worked on the development of
+    Bitmotto's white-label crypto exchange and remittance platforms.
+  sections:
+    - title: Legalys Orbis
+      items:
+        - Re-implemented Legalys's form for their Panama immigration processing
+          service, which was originally made in Odoo, as a web-app made in
+          Django, in order to provide a better user interface for their clients.
+        - Implemented an Odoo integration feature that allows administrators to
+          click a button to upload the data of all completed forms to Odoo.
+    - title: Perseus OTC
+      items:
+        - Developed most of a web-app for Perseus Ltd, a Panamanian currency
+          exchange company, which allows them to keep track of the operations
+          that they carry out, to check the balances of their accounts and their
+          clients', and to view graphs of certain metrics.
+    - title: Integration of Megasoft Payment Gateway for Odoo
+      items:
+        - Participated in the implementation of a certified Odoo integration
+          with Megasoft's payment processing platform, the most widely used in
+          Venezuela. Venezuelan companies that use Odoo will be able to use the
+          integration to receive credit card, mobile and Zelle payments, while
+          Bitmotto will receive a percentage of the amounts processed.
+    - title: Modern Portals for Odoo

+        - Built an Odoo module that provides a backend based on FastAPI with JWT
+          authentication, as well as a Nuxt.js frontend, in less than two weeks.
+          This will allow Bitmotto to quickly develop modern web frontends on
+          top of Odoo for clients.

+      items:
+        - Developed most of the database models and some form steps of Corpus,

+        - Implemented an Odoo integration feature that allows administrators to
+          click a button to upload the data of all registered companies to Odoo,
+          allowing the company to migrate away from Zoho CRM and reduce
+          subscription costs by over 60%.
+    - title: Bitmotto's own projects (Django Easystart, OTC, Remittance)
+      items:
+        - Expanded and refactored all unit tests, increasing test coverage to
