Welcome

Welcome to my blog about programming, mainly in C#, a modern, powerful and versatile programming language that allows you to create applications of all types. In this blog, I will share with you my knowledge, experiences, a beginner’s course (only in spanish) and tips on how to program in C#, with a special focus on object-oriented programming, a programming paradigm that helps you organize your code more efficiently, Modular and reusable.

I will also talk about my thoughts on the social and work aspect when collaborating with other developers, such as improving communication, sharing the best readable code, professional jealousy, machismo in IT, a very important and current issue that affects diversity, inclusion and equity in the technology sector. As a man, I want to offer my point of view on the challenges, opportunities and responsibilities we have as programmers to contribute to positive change in our society.

My first approach to the code: BASIC on Atari XE

As I mentioned before, my name is Francisco, I am from Mexico, my interest in software development began at a young age, I learned to program by reading the manual of my first computer, an Atari XE, it was a time before the internet.

BASIC was the language that was used to program in that ATARI, unlike object-oriented languages, BASIC is known as an imperative paradigm, they are instructions in sequence for the computer, as seen in the following code:

1
2
3

10 CLS
20 PRINT "HOLA!"
30 END

Later I learned many programming languages, QBasic, Pascal, Turbo C, Visual Basic to name a few. Already as a student, I designed and programmed three applications in Pascal that gave me personal satisfaction, which are a video game that is a clone of the arcade Pang, for this I needed to create my own tools, a paint-type application, and a sprite editor, to achieve the animations, I hope to later talk a little more about this.

Software development in my work life

I have worked as a professional in software development practically my entire adult life.

I currently work in a corporate, but I have been an independent developer and associated with magnificent professionals from different areas, such as forensic ballistics, where I am currently seeking to advertise this software that I developed and maintain that is focused on students in different disciplines of forensic sciences, named Te|ex.

It can be purchased from the Microsoft Store.
