Hi there! I'm Corbin: A Staff Frontend Developer,GitHub Star,Microsoft MVP developer, and teacher. This is my profile page to outline some of the things I'm working on today.

I've created a wide array of forms of content. I'm passionate about communication between developers and want to do my best to enhance the learning experience that other developers experience.

I've written 300K+ words on a wide range of programming topics. Among them are:

• 100+ articles for the blog, Playful Programming
• What is Aggregation in MongoDB?
• Add SMS Verification to React Native App Using Node.js and Express
• Integrating Shoelace with NextJS
• Astro'sNext.js andNuxt.js migration guides
• Various pages for Replay.io's docs and structure
• Much of Clerk's docs
• HERE Map's old React Tutorial

I'm also writing a book trilogy called "The Framework Field Guide", which teaches React, Angular, and Vue all at once! The first book is available now.

I do my best to engage with the community as much as possible, and have continued to hostcharity Livestream events, where we've even previously garnered $3k for charity!

I also host aDiscord community for others on Twitch to be able to talk to me and do pair-progamming in office hours in order to help solve some of their problems.
