On this week's episode of the podcast, freeCodeCamp founder Quincy Larson interviews Francesco Ciulla. He's a software engineer who has worked with the European Space Agency on code that powers the Copernicus satellite program. More recently he's published courses on learning Docker and the Rust programming language.
We talk about:
- How Francesco worked as a volleyball coach until we was 32, before getting serious about coding
- Francesco's work on coding satellites
- How he's given dozens of talks about emerging tools at major tech conferences
- How he creates tech tutorials even though he's a proud introvert who has to put himself out there
