What I Do
I build, maintain and provide support for websites, mostly in Wordpress. I use Bootstrap 4 a lot but I am happy in other frameworks or just working in straight HTML5. I’ve been using Adobe products for 20 years and currently use Xd for most of my UI work.
In addition to Wordpress I have built sites in Perch, customised Shopify themes as well working on numerous custom CMS’s. Back in the day I coded many a HTML email and even the odd Tumblr theme.
HTML5/CSS3/
JAVASCRIPT
It goes without saying that coding is at heart of my day to day work and I’m always looking to refine and improve on every project. Everything is clean, semantic and commented throughout. I make sure anyone can pick up from where I leave off if working in a team.
Wordpress Development
Wordpress is at the core of most of the work I do. I have been building Wordpress themes since around 2008 and it is still most client's first choice for content management. I also provide regular support for clients wanting help with updates and security. See here for more information.
USER INTERFACE (UI) DESIGN
I have been designing sites for the last decade, for clients selling online, promoting their ideas or products or for the cultural sector. I focus mainly on UI design now, adding to or refining existing designs or creating icons when required.
BOOTSTRAP DEVELOPMENT
I started using Bootstrap 3 soon after it's launch and continue to use Bootstrap 4 today as it can be taken over by any developer in the future. I’m happy working on other frameworks though if required.
SHOPIFY DEVELOPMENT
Over the past few years I have worked on modifying a number of Shopify themes to create bespoke ecommerce sites. Shopify's ease of use is ideal for many clients wishing to get started on ecommerce. I have a number of years experience working on this platform.
Cross Browser/Device Testing
At the end of any project comes testing. I generally use a mix of physical hardware and simulated testing via Browser Stack to ensure a seamless cross browser/device experience.
