Profile
Mouhssine Lakhili, full-stack developer
I build web products end to end with React, Next.js, Node.js and Python, and I like the work that sits between the interface and the data: APIs, automation and workflows that remove manual effort. I have about three years of apprenticeship experience, and I am available for a permanent role or freelance missions.

What I work on
My day-to-day core is JavaScript and TypeScript: React and Next.js interfaces, Node.js services and REST APIs, backed by PostgreSQL, MySQL or MongoDB.
Python is my tool for automation and data work: scripts, pipelines and small AI-assisted workflows with clear inputs, human review and logs.
How I work
I favour readable code, explicit data contracts and short feedback loops. I document decisions that are not obvious, and I write about what I learn on the blog.
- Interfaces that are fast, accessible and indexable
- Backends with validated inputs and understandable errors
- Automation that is observable and reversible
What I am still learning
Java/Spring Boot and .NET/Angular are recent personal projects, and Kubernetes, Terraform and cloud tooling are at exploration level. I list them for context, not as production experience.
