Backend Developer
Background
As a personal project, I ambitiously developed an API for an Islamic-themed blog website named Alhasanain. The platform is designed to provide essential blogging features with an engaging community aspect.
Solution
Alhasanain API is a RESTful backend service built with Golang, providing comprehensive blogging functionality with user management, content management, and community interaction features.
Account Management
Create, edit, and delete user accounts easily
Post Management
Effortlessly create and manage posts with categorization and tagging
Community Interaction

Implementation
Built with Golang, the API provides a robust backend foundation for blog operations. The project emphasizes clean code architecture and RESTful design principles.
Learning Challenge
This was my first experience learning Golang, with just one month to explore and build the project. The main challenge was understanding how to implement APIs in Golang. To overcome this, I spent time reading documentation and watching tutorials on YouTube to deepen my knowledge.
