Welcome to Dannell Bayer's website. Here you can explore my projects and resume, hosted on GitHub Pages.
I am an aspiring .NET system developer, currently transitioning from web and IT projects to specialize in building modern, dynamic applications with C# and .NET. I am passionate about learning and applying best practices in object-oriented programming, database development, and web application design. My goal is to leverage my experience and new skills to create efficient, secure, and user-friendly software solutions.
On this website, you can explore some of my personal projects, where I combine creativity and technical skills. Projects include web-based chatbots with automated CI/CD pipelines, as well as instructional videos on my YouTube channel for building a home lab with virtualization and penetration testing.

ProjectsThis project demonstrates how I migrated my website from a local Apache server to GitHub Pages, providing a more stable, secure, and accessible online solution. Through this upgrade, I gained hands-on experience with version control using Git, configuring a repository for deployment, using a static web environment, and pointing a custom domain to GitHub Pages. This work enhanced my understanding of modern web publishing practices and cloud-based solutions.
