Summary

Bruno Orlandi, a frontend developer from Sao Paolo, created the 'Star Wars Intro Creator', a nostalgic project that allows users to type any text and see it roll across the screen like Star Wars opening credits. The website received 4 million visitors and 50,000 accesses per month. Encouraged by its success, Orlandi launched intro creators for Westworld, Stranger Things, and Game of Thrones. He advises developers to just start contributing to open source projects and learn from the experience.
