In early 2016, Nikita began his programming journey with an introduction to HTML and CSS. This served as a starting point for creating his first website. At the time, Nikita was studying Pascal in his Computer Science class and self-studying the Python programming language after class. Eventually, Nikita realized that programming had become his hobby.
In 2017, Nikita expanded his knowledge of web technologies by learning Wordpress, JavaScript, jQuery and PHP. This enabled him to complete his first freelance order for a construction company to develop a website. Throughout the year, Nikita completed over 7 projects.
In 2018, Nikita enrolled in the Information Technology specialisation, where he learned fundamental programming languages such as C, C++, and C#. Alongside his studies, he took additional courses, including the renowned Harvard course ’CS50: Fundamentals of Programming’, and studied computer science. During the same year, Nikita collaborated with two clients. For the first client, he developed two websites and organised advertising campaigns. For the second client, the proofreader developed three websites and initiated a long-term collaboration.
In 2019, Nikita developed a Tetris game using C# for a course project. During this project, Nikita gained knowledge in design patterns and algorithms. Additionally, Nikita completed an in-depth course in HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and TypeScript, resulting in the creation of five websites. Finally, Nikita collaborated with partners to create an online shop selling doors.
In the middle of 2020, Nikita upgraded his design qualifications. He completed 9 courses and read over 15 books, gaining knowledge in designing loans, online shops, logos, corporate identities, informational websites, and more. Additionally, Nikita gained practical experience with graphic tools like Photoshop and Figma.
In April 2021, Nikita began writing his diploma thesis on the topic of ’Automation of an Educational Institution’ using the 1C:Enterprise platform. He devoted three months to this task and also completed three additional theses. During the same year, Nikita designed and developed a website for an acquaintance who owns a washing machine repair business.
By the end of 2021, Nikita joined the design office team as a remote Frontend developer. His responsibilities included developing the user interface using React, Next.js, and Redux. Additionally, Nikita identified and fixed bugs, performed code refactoring and optimization, integrated the server, and customized the Antd design system.
At the end of the workday, Nikita spent time developing a pet project named ’Denezhki’. The project was initially created using JavaScript, Rest API, and ExpressJS, but was later converted to TypeScript, GraphQL, and Fastify. Nikita designed the project using Figma, developed the server with NodeJS, implemented Storybook for testing, and created the client-side with React. They also added translations in six languages, implemented theme changes, and added PWA support for offline use. The project was tested using Jest.
In 2022, Nikita developed two websites using NextJS and uploaded them for free on GitHub: Kinopoisk Redesign and Truck auto Electrician. In July of this year, Nikita created a game called ’Rick Survival’ in the roguelike genre. Immediately after the release of ’Rick Survival’, Nikita began developing the next game, ’Dodging Fish’, which requires players to help a small fish avoid spikes. The development process involved the use of Phaser3, Vite, and TypeScript.
In 2023, Nikita created a theme for Visual Studio Code and published it on GitHub, which received over 3000 installations. Additionally, Nikita developed a template for creating games in Godot Engine, named ’Godot Game Template Extended’, and an accompanying addon called ’Godot Spin Button’.
By 2024, Nikita has completed over 10 projects, many of which are freely available on GitHub. Specialising in web application development, Nikita has experience working with a varietyof technologies, including JavaScript, TypeScript, React, NextJS, GraphQL, NodeJS, and more.
Currently, Nikita is working on a new project. For the latest updates, please refer to his Telegram channel. If you have any questions, you can contact Nikita at [email protected]. Additionally, you can follow him on social media platforms such as GitHub, Telegram, LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram.
The addon adds a new «SpinButton» element, which can be thought of as a drop-down list, where navigation is done using the «Next» and «Previous» buttons. By using this addon, users can conveniently select options, thus improving the user experience in Godot projects.
Godot Spin Button has a modular structure and allows you to use only the necessary modules to reduce size and improve code readability. The addon provides a rich API that allows you to create your own pagination, navigation buttons, effects and more. SpinButton includes all the built-in navigation elements such as pagination, navigation arrows, popup, title and description. These are just a few of SpinButton’s features.
«GGTE» is a game development template created for Godot Engine 4.x to increase developer productivity. This template covers many aspects of game development, from project structuring and debugging to code testing. Whether you’re an experienced game developer or a budding enthusiast, GGTE is the perfect start for game jams and personal projects, providing a ready-made workflow.
One of the key features of GGTE is the Scene Manager, which provides easy scene management and smooth transitions between scenes. The template also includes out-of-the-box modules such as continuous integration, customisable splash screens, basic menu navigation, pause and resume gameplay, precise management of game settings, game saving and localisation support. With GGTE, creating unique games becomes an easy and efficient process.

This is a one-page page that is dedicated to washing machine repair. I tried to collect all the necessary information about the services, so that customers can easily find answers to their questions. Thanks to automatic deployment, you can update the content on the site instantly and promptly.
Gulp is used to build the page, SCSS for easy styling, svg-sprite for efficient work with vector images, autoprefixer for automatic prefix addition, clean-css for CSS optimisation and browser-sync for easy development and real-time testing.
There are three build options: dev for development, build for the final version and backend for integration with the server side. My goal is to provide clients with maximum convenience, efficiency and high quality of service.
