My brain repo

Hello, I am BRAINREPO, also known as Mauro Murru. From 9.00 am to 6.00 pm, I am a senior software engineer at Nearform. I spend my days creating digital products for big companies and doing opensource in the JS and Typescript ecosystem.

In addition, I am a journalist registered with the Italian public registry.

My other passion is podcasting. Since January 2020, I have been the host and founder of the gitbar podcast. A podcast in Italian where we speak about software development and the like. Gitbar also has a community with around 1200 members; and yes, I am the community manager.
