My name is Mayank Zalavadia, and I am the proud maintainer of this solution-focused website. On May 3, 2020, I launched Dev Hooks to share valuable insights and resources. Before this, I managed another website that is no longer online. However, I have migrated all its solutions to Dev Hooks, so they remain accessible here.
I’m an IT professional with extensive experience in eCommerce website development. Web programming is not just my profession, it’s my passion. After earning my Master’s degree in Information Technology, I dedicated my time to building websites, both for fun and for personal growth.
My professional journey began in 2010 as a PHP web developer, a role that felt like a dream job and one I continue to love. Over the years, I’ve developed a deep appreciation for coding and problem-solving, which remains central to my career.
Whenever I learn something new, I strive to simplify and share that knowledge. Even a short, straightforward explanation can provide clarity and help others gain new perspectives. That desire to document and share my learnings is the foundation of this website, it has not only helped others but has also been a valuable tool for my own growth.
Currently, I work as a technical lead with expertise in PHP, JavaScript, jQuery, Node.js, React.js, and more. I’m also experienced in managing Unmanaged Servers, Git, Firebase Hosting, AWS (EC2), and Google Cloud services.
I owe much of my growth to the global programming community, from the rich resources on platforms like StackOverflow to insightful articles and tutorials. This website is my way of giving back a platform to share knowledge, tips, and tutorials that empower others in their development journeys.
Through this website, my goal is to inspire and guide fellow developers to become better. It’s deeply fulfilling to see my experiences and lessons find a home here, and I hope you find the content both useful and engaging.
Best Regard,
Mayank
