My headshot!

Hi there.

I'm Nikita Kastyshyn

I’m a software engineer based in the Bay Area, currently working at BioStrive LLC. My passion for technology and software development started when I got my first computer at eleven years old. I began with basic languages like HTML and JavaScript, eventually expanding my expertise through App Academy, where I studied Node.js, React.js, and full-stack web development. This experience gave me a strong foundation in building scalable, user-friendly applications. I’m always eager to apply my skills to create innovative solutions that enhance user experiences.

My Projects:

DevThreads

A mock site that sells clothing catered to stereotypical big city software engineers. DevThreads intends to be along the lines of other clothing brand websites, featuring apparel, a cart, a way to place and the ability to track these orders, as well as in-person locations. This was built entirely by me.

BeatRate

A platform that connects musicians to music connoisseurs. The sole purpose of BeatRate is simple: Musicians post albums, and users review them. The website's structure allows people to check out their favorite artists' profiles, check out other users' profiles to see what they're into, see what's regarded as a musician's best works, and express their own feelings on what hits hardest. This was collaboratively built within a group!
