Currently building the full stack of a project for generating interior design documents using React with Typescript and hooks. I've worked on a new large site for a fintech using Typescript, hooks, Jest, styled components plus maintenance and enhancement across several sites. Also have built an automatic form generator using JSON-schema, Typescript and hooks. I've built a few other sites and done maintenance on other people's React work too over the past 2 years.

Last year I built a site for the London Stoke Exchange for certain kinds of clients to apply for listing using NodeJS/Express and Typescript running on Amazon lambda. Currently I'm working on a reusable configurable Express/Typescript backend for in this case an interior design specification generator site.

I've worked with large websites and high security serverless web apps on AWS, using EC2, S3, IAM, Lambda, Cloudfront, API Gateway, Cloudwatch, Route 52, SES, VPN Gateway, VPC etc.

I've used Angular to build a hierarchical form generator that produces a form based on a json-schema with appropriate validation, plus created a tool in Angular for pricing office space.

I've done loads of in-depth stuff with ASP.Net Core since it came out - I've built a CMS with it, run a website on a Raspberry Pi (Linux), created AWS Lambda Functions with it in a commercial site for a bank, and other things. I love it's speed, flexibility and versatility.

Used to working with designers to produce professional pixel perfect front ends. Generally understand CSS better than the front end developers I've worked with. Done some interesting animation work including an scroll-animated site.

C# is my 'native' programming language, I've used it since .Net 1.1. I love Linq particularly as it is a productivity marvel and mixed functional benefits with procedural code in an elegant way.
