My name is Ivo and I am an Italian agile software developer who loves coding and solving problems in a simple yet creative fashion. During my years of web development I have grown a strong passion for fronted development which led me to a good understanding of its underlaying technologies. I love hacking the hell out of web apps and getting a grasp of cutting edge technologies in order to keep up with time and deliver the best user experience possible.

While user experience still plays a big role in what I enjoy doing, I've learnt how important it is to write stable yet maintainable and scalable backend solutions. Even though I started out with PHP, I soon naturally came closer to the NodeJS environment while still embracing more "elegant" technologies such as Ruby or Java either adopting frameworks or by implementing architectures from scratch.

I discovered the Agile Manifesto and eXtreme Programming back while joining XPeppers in 2013 and I’ve tried my best to apply either values and prin

	function translateError(msg) {
	var newErr = new Error(msg); // placed here to get correct stack
	return e => {
	newErr.originalError = e;
	throw newErr;
	}
	}

	async function asyncTask() {
	const user = await UserModel.findById(1).catch(translateError('No user found'))

	<script type="text/javascript">
	var _dcq = _dcq \|\| [];
	var _dcs = _dcs \|\| {};

	// From callback to async/await


	// 1. Callback

	const makeHttpRequest = (url, methodType, callback) => {
	const xhr = XMLHttpRequest();
	xhr.open(methodType, url, true);
	xhr.onreadystatechange = () =>{
	if(xhr.readyState === 4 && xhr.status === 200){

	// Function Component
	// Well, as you know, function components are a little limited.
	// All they know about is their current props. They can’t access previous props or external state.
	// And they’re only re-rendered when their parent is; they can’t be re-rendered individually.
	//
	// class components give you the power to store state, communicate with the outside world,
	// and re-render whenever you’d like. But class components can be simple, too! In fact,
	// any function component can also be implemented as a class component.

	function flattenArray(array){
	const toFlatterArray = [];
	if(Array.isArray(array)){
	array.map((elm)=>{
	if(Array.isArray(elm)){
	const arrayList = flattenArray(elm);
	arrayList.map((_elm)=>{
	toFlatterArray.push(_elm);
	});
	}else{

	//Q1. What is JSX
	// JSX is basically build tool that convert html tag into JavaScript
	// For Example:
	ReactDOM.render(
	<a href="www.blabla.com">
	<img src="https://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/random_number.png" />
	</a>,
	document.getElementById('app')
	);

	// Setting Initial State in constructor, Which can be change later by using this.setState method
	constructor(props){
	super(props);
