Hi 👋, I'm Rafa

I'm Rafael Botella Sánchez, from Alicante, Spain. I'm a tech-enthusiast, passionate learner, self-taught developer in the process of discovering new passions.

  • 🏆 Founder and content creator of Excapic (B.D.E.)

  • 🤔 I'm currently learning at Centre Especific d'Educació a Distància de la Comunitat Valenciana, where we use Angular with Typescript, Java, PHP+Laravel, MySQL, MongoDB, Networks and a little bit of AWS for deployment... although I also enjoy myself sometimes with Python.

  • 👯 I’m looking to collaborate on, well... web developement projects.

  • ⚽ Goals for 2026: land a job (or at least publish a few webs)

  • ⚡ Fun fact: I love the mountains ⛰️ and videogames 🎮.

Tech and skills

In addition to my technical skills, my background as a front office worker and later as a technical archaeologist has given me the opportunity to work on my soft skills and communication skills.

Python TypeScript JavaScript Jest Angular React HTML5 CSS3 NodeJS Git GitHub Markdown Vite Visual Studio Code Linux Ubuntu

I'm currently taking several free courses:

  • The Odin Project

👨‍💻 Rafael's Coding Journey🤠

 I started my coding journey as an archaeologist, dissatisfied with the repetitive tasks and lack of efficiency in the way we (the archaeologists) manage our data. During my studies I became curious about computer science and its applications in 'non-computer based' fields like mine and other 'human sciences', as we call them in Spain. One day I finally took the step and started learning to code in order to create tools that I and my colleagues seemed to need, and I went down the deepest rabbit hole I could ever imagine. Long story short, I didn't create the tool I was looking for, but I did learn something that I eventually came to love as much as my other hobbies.
