Hi! 👋

My name is Angelika Tyborska and I'm a full-stack web developer. I'm currently located in Berlin, Germany 🇩🇪, but I was born and grew up in Gorzów Wielkopolski, Poland 🇵🇱.

I write backend code in Elixir 💜. It's my favorite programming language because of its human-friendly syntax, immutability, pattern matching, and performance.

I love making websites pretty with CSS 🎨. Sometimes I do weird things with it just to see if I can and I publish it on css-art.angelika.me.
