Portfolio
Most work I do is done either under contract with my business Nerd @ Technology or informal jobs. Due to this I can't show anything that I myself have done. With this in mind, I have created a few projects below to show you what I can do!
A clean, minimal, responsive personal portfolio blog built with PHP 8+ and PDO/SQLite for the backend, HTML5/CSS3 (Inter) and vanilla JS for the frontend, featuring a secure admin panel (password-hashed login, CSRF protection), post management with categories/tags and featured images, a Quill rich-text editor, clean URLs, and an RSS feed.
A clean, minimal, responsive content management system built with PHP 8+ and PDO/SQLite, using HTML5/CSS3 (Inter) and vanilla JS. Includes a secure admin panel (password-hashed logins, CSRF protection), granular user and role management, page and module CRUD with a Quill rich-text editor, media/featured-image support, templating and site settings, clean URLs, and a lightweight setup/database schema for quick deployment.
A compact, responsive discussion forum implemented in PHP 8+ with PDO/SQLite and HTML5/CSS3 (Inter) plus vanilla JS. It provides secure authentication (password hashing, CSRF), user profiles and registration, categories, threads and post management, admin moderation tools (categories, threads, posts, users), a Quill-powered editor for rich posts, search and pagination, clean URLs, and safe PDO-prepared queries throughout.
A minimal, responsive store module built with PHP 8+ and PDO/SQLite, using HTML5/CSS3 (Inter) and vanilla JS. Features include a product catalog with featured images, cart and checkout flow, order management and admin product CRUD, PayPal payments integration, secure admin auth (password-hashed logins, CSRF protection), basic inventory/order tracking, clean URLs, and backend safety via prepared PDO statements.
A full-featured, responsive calendar web application built with PHP 8+ and PDO/SQLite for robust server-side persistence, and HTML5/CSS3 (Inter) with vanilla JavaScript for a fast, accessible frontend. Features include event creation and editing with rich descriptions, recurring event rules (daily/weekly/monthly/yearly), drag-and-drop rescheduling across day/week/month views, timezone-aware event times, configurable reminders/notifications, iCal (RFC 5545) import and export, search and filtering, keyboard accessibility, and optimistic client-side updates with server-side validation and prepared statements for security. Includes a simple admin interface for managing public calendars and import settings.
A lightweight browser overlay for Final Fantasy XIV (FFXIV) that integrates with ACT/OverlayPlugin or connects via WebSocket to receive CombatData and log events. Built with HTML5, CSS and vanilla JavaScript, it presents live party DPS, job/role breakdowns, percentage bars and a compact stream-friendly UI with OverlayPlugin auto-detection and WS fallback.
