Vagelis (@eboxnet) – WordPress user profile

Bio

Hi there 👋
I’m Vagelis, a Freelance Full Stack Software Developer from Greece 🇬🇷

I build modern web and mobile apps using multiple technologies and stacks.

I work with agencies, startups, and enterprise clients around the globe, helping them achieve their digital goals by turning ideas into fast, reliable, and scalable products. I focus on developer experience, performance, and clean architecture, and enjoy working across the entire stack, from UX to infrastructure.

I also prototype electronics, design hardware-integrated solutions using microcontrollers like the ESP32 and Arduino, and experiment with 3D printing — blending code with the physical world to create innovative tools, displays, and devices.

I’m an open-source contributor and have built several plugins and tools, especially in the WordPress and Strapi ecosystems. I’m also a WordCamp Speaker & Organiser, passionate about growing and supporting developer communities.

Interests

Outside of tech, I’m into running, food, video games, movies, and (yes) more food 🍜
