Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life.
Hi, I am @huxpro (Huang, Xuan), a will-be Facebook software engineer and a professed digital designer. My interests range from programming languages in general (type system, type-based formal verification, compiler construction, runtime system) to indurstial software engineering (web/mobile app development, user interface and UX, developer infra and DX).
In the past, I worked on Alitrip (Fliggy) mobile and web apps under the Alibaba Group, found and lead front-end infrastructure team at a unicorn startup Beijing Weiying (WePiao), and helped Ele.me to upgrade their mobile web into the first influential PWA (progressive web app) in China.
I studied BA, Digital Media Art at Communication University of China and MS, Computer Science at Rochester Institute of Technology, with a focus on programming languages theory and construction.
My Programming Languages Spectrum
I generally prefer languages that are close to ML (“Meta Language”), i.e. mostly functional programming. This should explain most of my picks e.g. JavaScript within dynamically-typed’s, Scala within JVM’s, Rust within unmanaged’s. Other preferences such as typed over untyped, expressive over limited are no-brainers.
Left-right is how much I prefer it. Top-down is how much I know it. Versions are lower bounds.
