First Python scripts
Tianiazy Marindrano
Cross-Platform Full-Stack Engineer
I’ve been building apps professionally 4 years. I’m 22, from Madagascar.
Web, mobile, desktop — React + the TypeScript ecosystem, plus Expo. Two apps on the App Store, a POS and LMS for macOS + Windows, and three years shipping at Loha.dev. Currently working on blocsms.com.
On the backend I stay pragmatic: CMS/BaaS when it’s the cleanest path, otherwise I’ll build a modern TypeScript API (Hono / Elysia) or reach for Go / Python / Rust when the problem calls for it.
