"Coding's mental dance,
Meditation's blissful trance.
Life's mastery found."





I'm Nils, a web developer and meditation facilitator, currently living in Berlin.

About

Nils Kriedner

Background

For the last 20 years I have been self-employed - teaching meditation, yoga and other awareness methods all around the world.

During these years I have also been passionately exploring my interest for programming, design and artificial intelligence.

Around ten years ago I actively began learning web development.


Coding Education

(Tech) Education

I started just by myself - going through the Curriculum of platforms like Codecademy, Teamtreehouse, Freecodecamp, as well as taking countless Udemy courses from teachers like Colt Steele and Angela Yu - to name just two of my favorite ones.

When the covid pandemic started, I suddenly couldn't facilitate my meditation workshops and retreats for quite a while. And I decided to use the time to dive even deeper into the rabbit hole of web development.

So in 2021 I finally took a professional Fullstack Web Development bootcamp for three months (full-time) at Spiced Academy in Berlin.

Since then I have continued to learn and grow. At the moment I am just about to finish a Frontend Web Development Techdegree at Teamtrehouse that I took to sharpen my frontend skills, and also to practice helping other students and doing peer reviews of their projects.

Technologies I regularly love to use are Node.js, React, MongoDB and Sass. My favorite tech stack therefore is the MERN stack, but I also worked extensively with PostgreSQL and other technologies during the bootcamp at Spiced Academy.


Coding Vision

Vision

I am open for both freelance and employment job offers in web development, both frontend and fullstack. My dream job is to work as a web development teacher, as I have always loved to inspire and help people in their learning journeys.

My vision for Conscious Coding is to facilitate recreational 'Coding & Meditation' retreats at beautiful locations - combining the art of using the mind and the art of relaxing the mind.

If that sounds interesting, subscribe to my newsletter to receive infos as soon as the vision becomes reality.
