Snippet Pad

I like to save code snippets, examples, and patterns to reference later.  My favourite app for this is SnippetsLab for Mac.  It’s elegant, full featured and performant.  The only features I’d suggest would be making snippets available across platforms (Mac, Window, Linux), and allowing users to organize snippets by tags instead of in a tree-structured […]

Nue Hues is a small web app for generating and sharing variations of a given CSS gradient.  Sometimes when you create a gradient using a pair of colours, the midway point looks muddy or grey.  This app generates a few variants for a given pair of colours by using different functions in the ChromaJS library.  […]

For the Canadian Hockey League, I worked on two versions of a custom Content Management System (CMS), along with their public facing, high-traffic websites.  The earlier version of this CMS was build almost entirely in PHP and the Symfony high performance framework.  The later version used RESTful services written in Python, and coordinated with RabbitMQ.  […]

Learning Management System

I was hired to work on a Learning Management System (LMS) in React.  The frontend communicated with a Flask RESTful API.  It inspired me to learn Flask by building SnippetPad, an app for saving, tagging, and filtering code snippets. The custom LMS had features such as slideshows for students, quizzes, grading, building and scheduling classes, […]

Canadian Center for International Justice

I contributed to the CCIJ’s custom WordPress website, especially the Case Studies posts and list pages.  This involved creating a case-study custom post type and adding geographical coordinates as custom fields so each case could be tied to a location.  These coordinates were used to populate a Google map with pins for significant locations, and […]

Web Tools

I worked on proprietary tools for websites that involved letting users arrange parts of the page (ingested from a REST API) by dragging and dropping.  I also worked with Angular as part of a management system and a customized WordPress plugin for internal use.

Wikipedia on Pipboy

This project is just for fun.  It’s a Pipboy UI for browsing Wikipedia.  I made it with  basic HTML, CSS, SVG and vanilla JavaScript.  It still needs work, but right now you can click links and view pages on the Pipboy’s glorious monochrome screen.  I’ll probably clean up the formatting a bit more and add […]
