I am Darko, a software developer based in Macedonia. I have over 8 years of experience in different fields like web, desktop/mobile software development, and system administration.
Computers have been in my life since I was very young and I loved everything related to IT. I started to test, research, play with UNIX/Linux console back in 2006 and as well as do some ethical hacking.
