Ep 83 - Afonso Carvalho, OutSystems MVP

This week, Feroz Khan had the pleasure of speaking with OutSystems MVP, Afonso Carvalho. After a year of working with Java, Afonso considered leaving the tech industry to pursue his second passion: working with animals. However, a college friend introduced him to OutSystems. Initially, Afonso was unimpressed, dismissing the platform as too simple and basic to create anything substantial. But at his friend's insistence, he took a closer look. After building his first application, Afonso was convinced of its potential and decided to fully embrace a career as an OutSystems developer.

In this episode, they discuss:

👉🏽 Being introduced to computers at a young age.
👉🏽 Frustrations of working with Java.
👉🏽 Discovering OutSystems and first impressions. 
👉🏽 Benefits of learning from a Senior rather than self-learning.
👉🏽 Benefits of the OutSystems platform.
👉🏽 Aspirations and Involvement in the OutSystems Community.
